[QUOTE="TheLBLman, post: 5124317, member: 1409"] Tell me about it. My friend has zero known quail currently on his farm, despite his farm being fantastic quail habitat, much better than in times past, and surrounded by other row-crop farms. Also, this is in a TN county once known for an abundance of quail, with more the county residents hunting quail back then than hunt both deer & turkey today! It was just amazing how many residents, even living in "town", owned "bird" dogs for quail hunting. Although wild turkey seem less fragile birds than quail, it's a legitimate concern that wild turkey populations may be declining for many the same reasons that quail have become near extinction. My fear is that a few decades into the future, hunters may be talking about the near extinction of wild turkeys much like some of us are now talking about what was once an abundance of Tennessee's native bobwhite quail.
