Episode Synopsis

Host Bob St.Pierre is joined by University of Georgia’s Dr. James Martin and Tall Timbers’ biologists Amanda Cramer and Justin Rectenwald for a conversation recapping the group’s three-year study focused on assessing crippling loss from bobwhite quail hunters. The results show hunters often wound more birds than they realize, many of which are never recovered.Episode Highlights:• Rectenwald details how the team tracked hunters and monitored radio-collared quail to measure success and loss.• Cramer reveals the startling percentage of birds crippled and never recovered by shots taken on the covey rise. • This episode also marks the return of Grain Belt’s “Premium Moments” in the Field story submissions. On the Wing Podcast is proudly fueled by Purina Pro Plan.
