About the species
Chukars and Hungarian (gray) partridge are introduced gamebirds from Eurasia that have established self-sustaining populations across the Western US. Chukars favor the steep, rocky country of the Great Basin ("chukar country" is its own genre of upland hunting); Huns prefer agricultural-grassland transition in the Northern Plains and Pacific Northwest.
Most Western range states run open-season hunts with bag limits typically 6-8 birds daily. Chukar hunting is famously punishing — "the first time you hunt them for fun; after that you hunt them for revenge" goes the saying. Huns are a more typical upland experience over pointing dogs.
