$350 per person dant as they once were First brought to Utah in 1895 pheasant numbers peaked in the late 1950s when sportsmen harvested over 300000 birds in one season Since that time hunter success has declined on the average about two per percent year Pheasants are the most popular of 18 small game species with about 80000 But pheasant hunters afield annually management problems are among the most difficult to solve There are two basic problems First pheasant habitat is shrinking and quality habitat is Second public access to declining private land is declining so there is less land open to hunters Habitat loss is subtle and insidious An increasing human population from 689000 in 1950 to 1316000 by 1978 has meant more roads subdivisions and businesses which have consumed large amounts of prime agricultural land The 1980 National Lands Study indicated Utah lost 100000 acres of agricultural land to urban development from 1967 to 1977 Another 230000 acres is expected to be lost by 1990 Agricultural technology has worked too Improved pheasants against have technology and mechanizations brought greater production efficiency which depress and crop surpluses prices Depressed prices have caused a decline in small family farms in favor of corporate giants Agricultural statistics indicate that in the next 20 years the number of US farms will decline by about one third Field sizes have also increased since larger equipment is more energy efficient Our surveys indicate that field size doubled between 1946 and 1966 removing miles of valuable fenceline nesting and tract land cover Weedy fence rows have declined More efficient water delivery systems such as concrete ditches and sprinkler systems have eliminated weedy ditchbanks Marsh areas have been drained and put into production Fall plowing is the rule new reducing the amount of corn stubble and waste grain available to pheasants A proposed wildlife license fee crease to be considered by the 1985 Utah Legislature would provide much of the additional revenue necessary to reverse or at least slow this alarming downward trend in pheasant habitat With adequate funding the Division could maintain consolidate exchange or lease additional prime upland game habitat This would include marshes which have value for nongame and waterfowl as well In order to provide for both habitat and the recreational needs of sportsmen there should be at least 640 acres of upland game habitat per county with no less than 160 contiguous acres managed for pheasants quail cottontail rabbits and doves Without aggressive management efforts in the next five years upland game wildlife and Utah hunters face a dim future marked by continued loss of habitat and decreased hunting opportunity But with enough money and time the state's remaining upland game habitat can be improved and level to at a reasonable managed and wildlife to preserve provide hunfor Utah sportsmen ting opportunity |
