Quail Population Analysis
This article is about helping increase healthy quail population. Kelly Reyna is a quail professor at the University of North Texas, he explains how he came up with four major ideas to bring quail back. He visited 300 ranches in Texas to come up with these four ideas. The first point he made was to balance the animal population. Reyna mentioned that one ranch “killed almost every coyote, skunk, and bobcat.” Therefore, this caused secondary animals to increase. Reyna explained that is should be essential to keep the primary predators. The second point was about proving protection from insects etc. He states that quail need about 300-500 grass per acre. The third point was about having connections from one ranch to another. Because quail do not
really move long distance Reyna suggested that ranches should considered having rotational grazing. Lastly, the last point the professor makes is quail diet. Quail’s major food source are insects. However, during the fall a ranch does not collect much food for quail. Reyna says that quail need 60 kcal a day to stay healthy. In order to achieve this the ranch has to mow routes in circle. Overall these four point the professor states are essential helpful ways for the quail community.
