Quail rise 9 percent overall, with a 50.6 percent jump in southern pastures but drops in eastern livestock and western regions. Gray partridge up 19.5 percent as numbers peak in northwest Iowa. The southeast closed pheasant zone will reopen to hunting after stocking and three reproductive seasons since 1973.
