Building on the successful first edition, published in 2007, this comprehensive update to Texas Quails: Ecology and Management provides an encyclopedic overview of the research and best practices that support quail management and conservation, an accessible as well as useful guide for wildlife and natural resource professionals.
Four species of quails are native to Texas--the Northern Bobwhite, Scaled Quail, Montezuma Quail, and Gambel's Quail--and hold the fascination of naturalists, hunters, and the general public. The Northern Bobwhite and Scaled Quail are of major economic significance to the state: hunters pay millions of dollars annually to lease land and construct hunting camps to support their pursuit of these birds. Gambel's Quail and Montezuma Quail are found in limited areas of southwestern Texas and represent an important barometer of rangelands and habitat conditions. In some regions, such as the brush country of South Texas or the grasslands of the Rolling Plains, quail are now an economic commodity on par with livestock and agricultural crops.
Written collaboratively by leading experts, this updated edition brings the results of cutting-edge research to those who manage, enhance, and restore quail populations. This new edition will inform and serve quail management, conservation, and research priorities in Texas for decades.
