Exceptions posted at the boundary

Not a standalone Nebraska category — chukar is explicitly bundled with gray/Hungarian partridge under NE's single 'Partridge' season and aggregate bag limit (per NGPC's official 2024-25 Small Game & Waterfowl Guide: 'PARTRIDGE (Includes Hungarian/gray and chukar partridges)'). No indication this joint structure changed for 2026-27, but not independently re-confirmed against a 2026-27 edition of the guide.

Population outlook

Nebraska 2026

Awaiting survey — Nebraska 2026

NGPC's survey instruments (Rural Mail Carrier Survey, bobwhite whistle count) don't track chukar at all - confirmed absence of any outlook/forecast infrastructure for this species, any year, mirroring South Dakota's identical gap (per knowledge-base's 2026 outlook data-collection-plan registry).
