For my research goals I addressed the theoretical importance of
competition in habitat selection of 2 quails and examined the use of
resources in peripheral and core areas. Methodological objectives
were to determine cover and food selection of Texas bobwhite (Colinus
virginianus texanus) and chestnut-bellied scaled quail (Callipepla
squamata castanogastris)...
Short-term effects of 3 grazing systems and prescribed burning on bobwhite (Colinus virginianus) populations were investigated on the Welder Wildlife Refuge near Corpus Christi, Texas, during spring (April through June) and fall (September through October) of 1976 and 1977. Two rotational systems, high intensity-low frequency (HILF) and four-pasture, deferred-rotation (4PDR),...
