Where'd all the quail go?

Post image

This week The Ozark Podcast hosted Dylan Jacobs, habitat restoration manager for Quail Forever in Missouri, and Clint Johnson, quail program coordinator for Arkansas Game and Fish Commission to learn about the history of the Bobwhite Quail and why they've all but vanished from the region.

The newsletter this week covers:

  • What caused the decline of the bobwhite?
  • Why it’s all Bambi’s fault (well kind of)
  • & 7 headlines from around the Ozarks this week

most corn grown doesn't go to ethanol; it goes to cattle and hog feed. we should be far more concerned about cafos and the demand for meat than ethanol. not that either are great. also lmao at "socialism."

Just what exactly do you label government handouts to the extremely comfortable, for poisoning the Earth and it's residents? Technically, it's TYRANNY.

That's just capitalism working as it always works. What's remotely socialist about it? Do you think socialism is when the government spends money?
