Perhaps working with "Quail Unlimited", this group operates a quail management demonstration area, a dog trial area; sells publications, art, sculptures, and photographs; and operates a quail hatchery and "game farm", selling quail and quail eggs to specialty restaurants. Staff present seminars, hold dog trials and related seminars, sell hunting-dog related art and carvings, and seek grants for studies likely to provide new insights into wild quail population increase or stability of profits. The objective is sustained profits from the quail resource and things closely related to it. .
Quail have declined in some areas of the state because of radical changes in land use, human occupancy, pesticide use, and increase in specialized predators. They can be abundant on areas where the conditions are right, made so by the intensive work of wildlife managers. Not a "multiple-use" program, unusual patterns of land use and use rotation are required. Wishing for the return of high quail populations or expecting land-use reversals is normal ... but the probability is very low. Building on some progress already made with the state programs in quail management, this program demonstrates on the land the high productivity of quail that can be gained with superior management.
