The Northern Bobwhite and Scaled Quail are of major economic significance to the state: hunters pay millions of dollars annually to lease land and construct hunting camps to support their pursuit of these birds. Gambel's Quail and Montezuma Quail are found in limited areas of southwestern Texas and represent an important barometer of rangelands and habitat conditions. In some regions, such as the brush country of South Texas or the grasslands of the Rolling Plains, quail are now an economic commodity on par with livestock and agricultural crops.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003eWritten collaboratively by leading experts, this updated edition brings the results of cutting-edge research to those who manage, enhance, and restore quail populations.
