The Wildlife Department is embarking on an intensive, long-term research project on two northwest Oklahoma wildlife management areas to study quail reproductive success and mortality. The Department is also teaming up with a group of partners to conduct an extensive research project that covers the western portion of the northern bobwhite quail's North American range. The Department will continue ongoing quail conservation efforts across the state through a number of initiatives on both public and private lands. QUAIL UPDATE 89er Chapter of Quail Forever donates $20,000 for upland habitat work As the Oklahoma Department of Wildlife Conservation continues to stay at the forefront of research efforts to learn about declining quail populations, the agency's partners continue to lend their support. At its Feb. 6 meeting, the Oklahoma Wildlife Conservation Commission accepted a donation of $20,000 from the Central Oklahoma 89er Chapter Quail Forever. The donation came from the estate of a Tillman Co. resident who wanted to benefit quail in Oklahoma, and the funds will be matched with $40,000 in Federal Aid in Wildlife Restoration Program dollars to purchase a skid steer, a tree-cutting attachment and a trailer for enhancing upland game habitat, particularly in southwest Oklahoma. Wildlife Department personnel can use the equipment to remove invasive red cedar trees and other encroaching woody vegetation on wildlife management areas in Oklahoma. "It is partners like the 89er Chapter of Quail Forever that help make conservation happen in Oklahoma," said Bill Dinkines, assistant chief of wildlife for the Wildlife Department. "We're grateful for their support and glad they are willing to jump in and help us conserve wildlife in Oklahoma." .
