You can now report observations of ring-necked pheasants and wild turkeys through a citizen science effort by the Minnesota DNR.
Report any pheasant and turkeys you see in the wild from May through September. The DNR will use information from the reports to help monitor pheasant and turkey population trends, evaluate conservation efforts and make decisions about harvest regulations. People can report pheasants and turkeys of all ages. Also, please note that the project is in addition to pre-existing pheasant and turkey research and monitoring efforts and will not be used as the only determining factor for hunting regulations.
People can enter information on the Minnesota DNR website using a mobile device or desktop computer. The page will also include the opportunity to sign up for email updates when the reporting effort’s results are available.
