Book Description
Excerpt from The Ecology of Bobwhites in South-Cental Kansas The research here reported on was supported, in part, by a fellowship from the University of Kansas Endowment Association, made possible by the generous gifts of Messrs. Floyd and Henry Amsden of Wichita, Kansas. A research assistantship on the State Biological Survey of Kansas, University of Kansas, provided for many of the expenses incurred in travel and while in the field. Permission to use as a study area Plum Thicket Farm, a managed game area in northeastern Barber County, Kansas, owned by the Amsden Lumber Company of Wichita, was kindly granted by the Amsdens. They also provided for my use a residence conveniently situated near the study area. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book Description
Northern bobwhite (Colinus virginianus) populations in much of the species range have been declining for the last 35 years. I trapped and equipped bobwhite with radio transmitters and tracked them during 2003--2005. I used these data to examine the effects of landscape configuration on survival as well as the habitat association of bobwhite in southeastern Kansas. I used the nest survival model in Program MARK to determine the effects of habitat configuration on weekly survival of radio equipped bobwhite during the Fall-Spring (1 October to 14 April) and the Spring-Fall (15 April to 30 September) at home range and 500 m buffer scales. Individual survival probability for the Fall-Spring period was 0.9439 (S.E. = 0.0071), and the most parsimonious model for the Fall-Spring period at the home range scale was B0 + percent woodland + percent cropland. At the 500 m buffer scale the most parsimonious model was B0 + percent Conservation Reserve (CRP) program land. The weekly survival probability for the Spring-Fall period was 0.9559 (S.E. = 0.0098). At the home range and 500 m buffer scales there were weak associations of habitat to survival during Spring-Fall with the most parsimonious model for both scales B0 + percent other. Using Euclidean Distances to measure distance from animal location to each habitat, I found that habitat selection was occurring during the Spring-Fall (Wilkes lambda = 0.04, F6, 36 = 143.682, P

Book Description
Texas Quails presents the first complete assessment of the four species of quail found in this vast state. Experts describe each of them and examine all geographic regions of the state for historical and current population trends, habitat status, and research needs. These experts also discuss management practices, hunting issues, economics, and diseases.
