INTRODUCED SPECIES 



Ring-necked Pheasant. P.R. 



This bird, sometimes called the Chinese Pheasant, has 

 been liberated in various places in the state during the last 

 fifteen or twenty years. It is probable that a certain number 

 of English Pheasants, from eastern stock, have been mingled 

 with them. Of late years they have been set free in greatly- 

 increased numbers and they are apparently becoming accli- 

 mated and doing fairly well in the southern part of the state, 

 especially where assistance is rendered during severe winters 

 by supplementing their food supply. 



House Sparrow, English Sparrow. P.R. 



Introduced between 1870 and 1880 and now abundant 

 everywhere throughout the state, in the country as well as 

 in the cities and towns.
