Quail Fact Friday!💡 As we celebrate Build a Wildlife Area Week (BAWA), let’s talk about the incredible impact of habitat conservation and what it means for our favorite upland birds. Did you know Quail Forever has helped conserve over 229,000 acres of land through our BAWA program? That’s a huge win for habitat, and has big implications for quail. Here’s how it works: In high-quality habitat, the home range of a bobwhite quail covey is about 40 acres. While not all BAWA land occurs in quail country, that many acres has the potential to support over 5,500 coveys of quail! It shows that with proper conservation efforts, we can create landscapes that support thousands of thriving coveys! Join us in continuing to protect and expand quail habitat! #quailforever #quail #bobwhitequail #quailfactfriday

The Upland Newsroom - August

This year, we are celebrating the 60th anniversary of the Land and Water Conservation Fund, a critical tool for conserving habitat and increasing access to public lands. The success of conservation programs like LWCF, the North American Wetlands Conservation Act, and others are the result of strong advocacy from conservationists, hunters and anglers, and private landowners. Your support of Build a Wildlife Area® will allow us to continue building strong relationships with federal, state, and local agencies to utilize these funds for permanent protection and public access.
