Restoration company looks to reintroduce native quail species

From Sunday's Janesville Gazette

...Tallgrass Restoration introduced 100 northern bobwhite quail Saturday to its 220 acres of prairie at County N and Highway 59.

...Tallgrass CEO Peter Layton wants to reverse that trend. The company has released birds periodically in the past but often found them back at the barn where they were raised, he said.
