Population status

Chukar
(Alectoris chukar)

The Chukar is not well monitored in Canada, since it has a restricted range and data from the Breeding Bird Survey are too sparse to calculate a trend for Canada. Christmas Bird Count (CBC) results based on 12 count circles in southern British Columbia suggest a large decrease in population. However, these results are based on few records and the precision of the trend estimate is poor and so the reliability of this assessment is considered low.
