The cheer pheasant, which became extinct in Pakistan, was reintroduced in the region. The World Pheasants Association sent 90 eggs of the species to the Dhodial Pheasantry. Among the eggs which hatched, the mortality was high and remained high till 1995. This situation got better in 1996. In 1997, a parent flock of 40 pairs was raised and eventually reintroduction of the cheer pheasant in Hazara District was carried out.[1] As of 2007, there are around 60 pairs of cheer pheasant in the Dhodial Pheasantry.


 Pheasantry is a pheasantry and breeding center for several species of pheasants

Why did the Dutch flag change?

By
Why did the Dutch flag change? Originally, the Dutch flag was coloured: orange-white-blue, from top to bottom. Today, the colour is red-white-blue. It is one of the oldest national flags in the world and it inspired many other famous red-white-blue flags, such as the one of Luxembourg, France and Russia. Ours is the mother of all red-white-blue flags. But why the red? The orange was an obvious reference of the royal house of Orange, the family that supplies our kings and queens even today. That is why Dutch football supporters are always dressed in orange, and why everyone in the Netherlands dresses in orange on King’s Day. One possible reason is dye technology.

What is a blog

Posts are typically displayed in reverse chronological order so that the most recent post appears first, at the top of the web page. Until 2009, blogs were usually the work of a single individual, occasionally of a small group, and often covered a single subject or topic.
