EP. 328: Finding Crippled Quail with Bobwhite Biologists
About this episode
Host Bob St.Pierre is joined by University of Georgia’s Dr. James Martin and Tall Timbers’ biologists Amanda Cramer and Justin Rectenwald for a conversation recapping the group’s three-year study focused on assessing crippling loss from bobwhite quail hunters. The results show hunters often wound more birds than they realize, many of which are never recovered.
Episode Highlights:
• Rectenwald details how the team tracked hunters and monitored radio-collared quail to measure success and loss.
• Cramer reveals the startling percentage of birds crippled and never recovered by shots taken on the covey rise.
• This episode also marks the return of Grain Belt’s “Premium Moments” in the Field story submissions.
