Quail Unlimited® was founded in 1981 to battle the problem of dwindling quail populations and declining wildlife habitat and is the oldest national, nonprofit conservation organization dedicated to the wise management of America's wild quail. Known as "America's Leader In Quail Conservation," our overall vision is to restore America's quail populations for future generations.
Quail Unlimited® is a membership-based organization that consists of members-at-large as well as members affiliated with local chapters. Local chapters conduct annual fundraisers to have funds available for local projects. Since population declines are directly related to landscape changes that have occurred over the past decades and since habitat loss is the major contributing factor, most local projects are designed to improve habitat conditions. Chapter members and volunteers are actively involved in hands-on, on-the-ground projects on private and public lands. They also work with farmers and landowners to encourage them to use wildlife-friendly practices and frequently provide monetary incentives as part of their local program.
It is also important to increase awareness of the quail situation to landowners and the general public. Therefore, many chapters conduct informational and educational programs such as Quail Unlimited Wildlife Food and Cover plots workshops, youth conservation days and other community outreach projects. Quail Unlimited staff have also been very active in regional, state and national efforts by promoting legislation to benefit quail and other declining grassland species.
Quail Unlimited® has teamed with state and federal wildlife agencies, federal farm agencies, universities and corporate partners and the list of accomplishments during our first 25 years is very impressive.
Our core values include the wise stewardship of our land and its resources, and the continuation of our proud heritage of conservation, therefore, leaving a legacy and firm foundation for our youth and families to build upon. Our members are from all walks of life, but they all have the common thread of being interested in quail conservation, now and for the future.
