Last month, Quail Forever team members, alongside volunteers and numerous partners, executed a prescribed fire on nearly 1,000 acres outside Spearman, Texas. Located on the northern edge of the Texas Panhandle, the property is owned by the Palo Duro Water Authority. The burn will boost the long-term health of wildlife habitat on the property, which is home to numerous upland, big game and non-game species — including pheasants, bobwhite quail, scaled quail, whitetail deer and mule deer. Just as important, the burn also helps mitigate wildfire risk for the future in an area of the country that was recently impacted by historic fires. Learn more about this burn and the benefits of prescribed fire at the link below. https://quailforever.org/BlogLanding/Blogs/Quail-Forever/The-Habitat-Organization-and-Partners-Execute-Large-Prescribed-Burn-in-Texas.aspx

Quail Fact Friday!💡 Did you know that the gopher tortoise, the only land tortoise native to the southeast, plays a crucial role in the quail ecosystem? Found in longleaf pine savannas across states like Louisiana, Mississippi, Alabama, Florida, Georgia, and South Carolina, this incredible tortoise digs burrows up to 40 feet long. These burrows provide refuge not just for the tortoise, but also for over 350 other documented species, including bobwhite quail. Habitat restoration for gopher tortoises benefits quail by preserving the diverse longleaf pine forests they both call home. These ecosystems are vital for many species, making the gopher tortoise a true keystone species in maintaining ecological balance. This is just another example of how managing for bobwhite quail habitat benefits a host of other species. #quailforever #quail #quailfactfriday
