Rico,
I have my opinion. I believe that it is thanks to the outdoorsmen like us. We are the ones that form the clubs, raise the money, and pay the fees to support our sports. The die hard animal activists think we are the problem. The truth is, we are the solution. Thanks to our conservation efforts, we are able to increase the habitat and the populations, and keep them healthy at the same time. I am proud that I have contributed to the effort. You are right though, we need more effort to support the quail populations (Like most game, decrease in habitat has hurt the population the most). I heard that there are now more turkeys in the U.S. than there has ever been in the history of our country. Thanks fellow outdoorsmen, hunters, and fishermen.
