Show Notes

On this episode of Backwoods University we’re going to find out what really happened to the bobwhite quail and the hunting culture that surrounded it. Well known hunter and conservationist, Will Primos, gives us a first-hand account of what quail hunting and quail hunting culture was like during the perceived “glory days” of the 1950s and 1960s. He also shares his experience of watching quail seemingly disappear from the landscape. Wildlife biologist and upland game bird professor, Dr. Mark McConnell, gives an in-depth explanation of the many factors that led to these mass quail declines.
