Where the birds are

Finding Gray (Hungarian) partridge in Connecticut

Range and concentration

No wild gray (Hungarian) partridge population exists in Connecticut to regionalize. DEEP's own fact sheet places this species on the same preserve-hunting/dog-training-release basis as chukar, with which it shares a season and bag limit under one CT program — no DEEP-run public stocking program with a defined geography exists for this species (unlike pheasant and quail), so there is no region to honestly name.
