Well maintained barbed wire fences built from zinc coated wire and steel posts were not degraded by fire in the tallgrass prairie. Damage found after fire is often from previous wear and/or vegetation overgrowth that burns slowly at high temperatures bit.ly/FireEffects_Fencing

A MESSAGE FROM OUR CEO: Our uplands stand to lose much over the next few months. But slowing down our habitat mission is simply not an option. We can’t lose ground! bit.ly/2SqFPxg w/ @pheasants4ever #TheHabitatOrganization #GivingTuesdayNow
Facing obstacles too often familiar to producers, farmers in Cotton Plant, AR tried something new!
“A decade later and they’re still farming. They still have competitive yields, but they’ve also reduced input costs by 50 to 60%.”

Farm Bill Wildlife Biologist Josh Marshall shared a few pics of a field being converted to native grasses and wildflowers. While the brown field compared to the green buffer might look like unsightly to an unknowing observer, this brown field is exactly what we want to see...
We are working hard here in Arkansas t make sure our landscape keeps that motive power for people to get out and enjoy their natural habitat!
Without the bobwhite quail, the landscape of Arkansas loses tremendous motive power bit.ly/39E4iVs via @arkansaslife w/ @ArkansasQF @hunt_cook_eat #thehabitatorganization #QuailForever #Arkansas

No secret bobwhites have declined dramatically in the last 50 years. About a 3.5% decline/year across the range. A large landscape with 1000 quail in 1966 would now have less than 150. In GA it is worse, less than 50 bobwhites would remain. Why? What do we do about? Stay tuned…

The landscape in Arkansas, and indeed anywhere in the quail range, loses that magnetic draw and magic it once had without bobwhites.

Because much of their native grassland habitat has disappeared, the lesser prairie chicken now occupies just 17 percent of its original range. Here's what Quail Forever is doing to save these boomers of the southern plains bit.ly/2Y74bzI w/ @LPCInitiative @USDA_NRCS
