This state's classification carries no date range for the species.
MN DNR regulations explicitly classify chukar partridge as an 'unprotected' bird (grouped with house sparrows, starlings, common pigeons, Eurasian collared-dove, and monk parakeets) that may be taken at any time, in any manner (except with artificial light or a motor vehicle), with no license, season dates, or bag limit. There is no self-sustaining wild population and it is not managed as a game bird in Minnesota.
No self-sustaining wild chukar population exists in Minnesota to regionalize. MN DNR classifies chukar as an unprotected species (Minnesota Statutes 97A.015), the same status as house sparrows and starlings, with no season, license, or bag limit. No historical release program or sighting cluster gives it a mappable geography.
No formal population survey program exists for this species in this state.
