3.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Yes
\nMotion was made by Linda and seconded by Dave for allocation of not to exceed.
\n$2,000 to support Montezuma (Mearns) quail diet study headed by Dr. Alberto Macias Duarte, Sonora State University in Hermosillo, Sonora, MX.\u00a0 The funding will be coordinated through New Mexico Quail Inc. (formerly Quail Unlimited SW New Mexico chapter). Project objectives: #1 Crop study from birds harvested in SE Arizona\/SW New Mexico and #2 Estimate the effects of climate change on Mearns quail food resources to model changes in the species\u2019 future distribution in its northern edge. Highly valued as a game bird in Arizona and New Mexico, those states are the northern edge of its distribution. The feeding ecology of this quail is poorly known.\u00a0 Winter may limit its preferred food and thus may reveal the ecological processes limiting the abundance of the species more efficiently. This project aims to provide basic information on diet composition on Montezuma quail during the winter at the northern edge of the species distribution. By investigating the feeding ecology of Montezuma quail, we may address the demographic consequences of a more arid southwestern United States in the coming decades as predicted by General Circulation Models by investigating the changes introduced to their food source.<\/p>\n
