Ringneck Pheasant

Why can't cage raised Ringneck Pheasants live in Alabama woodlands?
If you were to buy and release 100 Ringneck Pheasants on 120 acres of farmland in southern Alabama why would they not live and reproduce perpetually?
I asked this very question of The Department of Natural Resources ( Fish and Game ) here in Indiana.
They said that cage raised birds will come from a line of birds which have been raised in protected environments for too many generations to retain their basic traits. Basically, they have lost their wild survival instincts.
I did a little research and found this to be true. There was a case of 1000 cage raised quail being released into the wild to supplement a winter-killed population. Virtually every quail was dead in less that 3 months. They simply don't know what to do to avoid foxes, hawks, dogs, cats, mink and all the other natural predators.
You have a noble idea, but it does not work in real life.
Sorry.
