In an effort to appease small game hunters, Roe said the commission will increase its production of pheasants to 200,000 birds for the 2012-13 season. Funds to pay for the increase in birds will come from money the commission has received from Marcellus Shale-related leases on State Game Lands. Never fear, hunters !

Apparently, only the weight of one wild specimen has been recorded (253 g), while all the other weight data is from captive birds (mean 320 g, presumably indicating that the captive species could do with some more exercise, fewer video games, and less snack food).
