**"It has the power to protect birds that are kind to nature."**
There are two theories regarding the pheasant (Phasianus versicolor): one that it is an independent species found only in Japanese populations, and another that it is a subspecies of the Common Pheasant (Phasianus colchicus), which is distributed across the Eurasian continent. In Japan, it is found as a resident bird on Honshu, Shikoku, and Kyushu. The Common Pheasant, native to the Eurasian continent, has also become naturalized in Japan.
The specific epithet "versicolor" is Latin for "variously colored." In old Japanese, it was written as "雉子 (kigisu)."
