Knoxville, Tenn. (Nov. 28, 2008) – Northern bobwhite quail depend on good brood cover to sustain and increase their population. In Missouri, 19 conservation areas designated at Quail Emphasis Areas will see improvement thanks in part to a grant from the SportDOG Brand® Conservation Fund, a program dedicated to supporting wildlife habitat-enhancement initiatives.
The state’s Quail Emphasis Areas are improved when invasive plant species are removed. To that end, Missouri Department of Conservation needs to purchase glyphosate and use it to eradicate tall fescue and smooth brome in a variety of early successional habitats.
Project goals include achieving a quail population of one bird per two acres based on fall whistle counts by 2013 and providing the public and biologists with good examples of quality upland habitat.
In addition to SportDOG Brand’s $3,000 grant, the project is also receiving funding and in-kind labor and equipment from the MDC itself, and $4,000 from the National Wild Turkey Federation.
