Tall Timbers Awarded a Grant from Park Cities Quail Coalition
Tall Timbers’ Game Bird Program is honored to be a 2020 Park Cities Quail Coalition grant recipient in the amount of $75,000. The grant will fund work to restore bobwhite quail in East Texas, by working cooperatively with landowners to manage habitat and reintroduce wild quail.
Tall Timbers received a generous endowment gift to help establish a research and management program in East Texas. In addition, we have been fortunate to have a future translocation site identified, and habitat work has begun with support from a private landowner. The Parks Cities Quail Coalition grant provides critical gap funding to help jump start our conservation work in East Texas, while we complete the endowment goal to support a scientist position in the region!
This year, Park Cities Quail Coalition raised over $1.9 million, which has allowed them to distribute grants totaling $1.5 million to organizations like Tall Timbers. Indeed, their “grant will make a difference we can all celebrate.”
Thank you Park Cities Quail Coalition!
