"Every day – or year – that goes by without a new Farm Bill, our nation’s ability to conserve habitat and increase sportsmen’s access through The Conservation Reserve Program and the Voluntary Public Access and Habitat Incentive Program will suffer," Andrew Schmidt, the director of government affairs for Pheasants Forever and Quail Forever, shared in a statement.

BREAKING NEWS! The U.S. House of Representatives Introduces North American Grasslands Act Today! Link to the full announcement below. More than 70% of America’s prairies, sagebrush sage-steppe, and grasslands ecosystems have disappeared since the 1960s. Those habitat losses have been followed by precipitous declines of grasslands wildlife, particularly bobwhite quail, prairie grouse, pheasants, honeybees, and monarch butterflies. The Grasslands Act would kickstart the voluntary protection and restoration of grasslands and sagebrush shrub-steppe ecosystems – and the livelihoods and wildlife dependent upon them. Functionally, the legislation is modeled upon the highly successful and beloved North American Wetlands Conservation Act (NAWCA) and would create a landowner-driven, voluntary, incentive-based program to conserve America’s critically imperiled grasslands. Today, the U.S. House of Representatives introduced the North American Grasslands Conservation Act. The bill was authored by Representative Nancy Mace (R – SC), Representative Sharice Davids (D – KS), Representative Brian Fitzpatrick (R – PA), and Representative Mike Thompson (D – CA). If passed, the legislations would widely be considered one of the most significant steps for grassland conservation efforts in the 21st century. Pheasants Forever and Quail Forever are part of a coalition of nearly 50 conservation organizations working in support of this critically important grasslands legislation. https://bit.ly/4eAG5BN #ActForGrasslands

“Hunting may not be fundamental to being a good quail biologist, but not hunting quail is certainly a missed opportunity to interact with the bird in its habitat. If there’s a better classroom than the places quail live, and better teachers than Mr. and Mrs. Bobwhite, I don’t know them. At the time, I had seven QF biologists on staff who had never hunted quail, and I was asking for the opportunity to change that with very little to offer in return. Luckily for me, the training of young quail biologists has, in the time I’ve known him, always been a passion of Mr. Jimmy’s.” Read the entire story: “Field Lessons: Hunting Shapes Quail Management in Mississippi” By John Mark Curtis, Mississippi & Alabama State Coordinator, at the 🔗link in our bio. 📸: by Catherine Carter This story was originally publish in the Fall 2024 issue of the Quail Forever Journal, become a member today to get more stories like this at your doorstep. #quailforever #quail #quailhunting
