WPA CD on Aviary Design and Management for Pheasants 

WPA has often been asked to give advice on this subject, both within its Chapters and also to organisations responsible for pheasant conservation in Asia. Vice-President John Corder has put together many of the ideas that WPA members have contributed from their personal experiences and incorporated these into a computer CD. The CD needs to run using the Microsoft PowerPoint programme, and there is also an accompanying commentary using Microsoft Word.

There are some 117 different slides which illustrate the key points in the construction of aviaries for pheasants and the CD also provides many ideas on the management of pheasant species to encourage good breeding results.

The CD is obtainable for £12 from WPA headquarters. This price includes postage and packing. When ordering, please state which version of PowerPoint and Word you are using on your computer. All proceeds will be donated to WPA general funds to help keep WPA financially secure .
