The northern bobwhite, one of America’s premier gamebirds, has been studied for over a century. There are, however, many unanswered questions regarding the influence of a hunting on the species. The Caesar Kleberg Wildlife Research Institute is currently studying some aspects of hunting on a northern bobwhite (Colinus virginianus) population in South Texas. This research is being conducted in partnership with the East Foundation, a nonprofit organization that promotes the advancement of land stewardship through ranching, science, and education.
