Scope and Content: The Wildlife Disease Laboratory monitored the health status of the various species of pheasants, housed at the Mason Wildlife Facility, (Hatchery and Rearing Unit) Rose Lake Hatchery Unit, Lazy Boy Chair Company in Monroe, the J.R. Whiting facility in Erie, and the Detroit Edison Club in Monroe County. Monitoring was done in order to detect diseases and other conditions which might threaten the success of the Southern Michigan Pheasant Program. When available, sick and dead pheasants were collected and examined on a weekly basis by personnel of the Wildlife Disease Laboratory. Necropsy results have been tabulated for the birds which were examined from the 6 units, following the descriptions of these findings.
