The golden pheasant, also known as the Chinese pheasant, is a species of bird native to the mountainous regions of western China. It is known for its bright, colorful plumage, with a golden crest, red and yellow body, and long, ornate tail feathers. The male of the species is more brightly colored than the female and has a distinctive facial ruff. Golden pheasants are ground-dwelling birds that feed mainly on seeds, fruits, and insects. They are popular in aviculture due to their striking appearance, and have been introduced to other parts of the world as a result. In their native range, golden pheasants are not considered endangered, although habitat loss and hunting are potential threats to their populations.
