Earlier Quail Dates Set In South Texas
The Texas Parks and Wildlife Commission moved quail season dates in the South Central District to start earlier than statewide dates. Counties affected include Aransas, Atascosa, Bee, Bexar, Cameron, Dimmit, Duval, Frio, Hidalgo, Jim Wells, Karnes, Kinney, Live Oak, Maverick, Medina, Starr, Uvalde, Webb, Willacy, Wilson and Zavala with six counties needing county commission approval. The shift reflects July census data showing a 182 percent rise in quail numbers and many birds near full size.
