Radio-tagging and wing-tagging birds has been carried out by the GWCT for research purposes for many years. During the 60s and 70s, a National Game-Marking Scheme was set up by the GWCT to gain an understanding on how the release dates and ages of pheasants effected the overall percentage return.
As of August 2015 all GWCT blogs can now be found here on our website. Previous blog posts from the Allerton Project Research blog can be read here.
