Pheasants were once hunted as "ginseng" in the animal kingdom. Therefore, in 2008, pheasants became the second-class protected animals in China, and illegal hunters will be punished by law.

Population status:

The state's vigorous protection of pheasants has made many illegal hunters dare not act rashly, so the situation of hunting pheasants has been greatly improved. Secondly, the adaptability of the pheasant itself is very strong, and it can survive in the environment of 40 degrees Celsius above zero or minus 15 degrees Celsius. In addition, the life range of pheasants is very wide, and we can see pheasants everywhere, whether in the mountains or in the wilderness. Because pheasants often eat bean products and stems and leaves of crops, they are very common in some rural areas of China.

In addition, in the past few years, the economy was not developed enough and people's diet was not rich, so pheasants were often served on the table. But in recent years, with the gradual improvement of people's living standards, meat has become a common food for people. Therefore, few people will hunt pheasants.

Although the number of pheasants has increased at present, it is absolutely impossible to describe the number of pheasants in rural areas with many words, which is still far from what it used to be. In addition, if you want to eat some game, you'd better buy it in a formal way. Don't catch it yourself, or you'll touch the law.
