You know that part in Wedding Crashers where Christopher Walken takes them quail hunting and Owen Wilson says, "I don't even know what the FUCK a quail is!!"
That's the kind of ignorance that Quail Forever is fighting against. If complete dorks with nothing better to do don't band together soon, the consequences could be dire. "If quail habitat continues to disappear, so will the quail…and along with it, quail hunting." Think about it. If there's no more quail hunting, what excuse will Dick Cheney have for shooting people in the face? He might just have to start hunting....you.
Quail Forever Marks Two-Year Anniversary
Over 90 QF chapters have formed in 26 states to lead the road to quail recovery
Saint Paul, Minn. – August 10, 2007 – Today, Quail Forever (QF) celebrates its second anniversary. In the two years since Pheasants Forever (PF) launched QF, over 90 QF chapters have formed in 26 different states, all focused on QF's mission – the conservation of quail and other wildlife populations.
"Young chapters are already initiating habitat projects and youth programs," said Jim Wooley, QF's Director of Field Operations. "Because QF chapters have responded well to QF's locally-driven model. These chapters and members are willing to work hard to raise funds and do the necessary habitat work, because they are able to see the results of that work in their own communities." Like PF, QF employs the unique model of empowering local chapters with 100 percent control of the chapters' locally-raised funds to complete habitat and youth education projects in the chapters' own communities.
But despite the early success of QF chapters, U.S. quail populations remain in trouble. If quail habitat continues to disappear, so will the quail…and along with it, quail hunting.
"Quail need troops, plain and simple," Wooley said, "The only way the plight of this great game bird will change is if enough people care enough to do something about it. Quail need your help."

Not only does Ben Streitz have f'in quail gang cred, but he makes a mean "Cherry Berry Pecan Blast" ....perhaps the secret ingredient is....quail?
