The manner in which the quail sup ply of North Carolina is maintained is little short of remarkable when one con siders the inroads made upon these birds. And in this connection it is trite to state that sportsmen under present conditions, will not make any perceptable decrease. But hunters who shoot on the ground, and trap and snare, do much damage and at rare intervals, wet springs or se vere winters kill off a good many; but the real inroads upon the bird supply are made by the natural enemies of the quail ; the fox, the hawk and the owl. The destruction wrought by these all-the-year poachers is incalcuable. One fox will work more havoc than a small army of sportsmen, for he begins with the egg and then follows up the youngsters and at last lies in wait for the covey. When the birds are strong enough to elude reynard, they become by day, the prey of the sharp-eyed hawk which is ever on the lookout for such dainty morsels as they furnish, and by night the luminous eyes of the great owl seek them out where they sleep. Taken all and all it is wonderful how the birds manage to escape in such bounti ful numbers. No one knows how many thousands upon thousands of quail are destroyed in this manner each year, but everyone knows that it is many, many times more than the number that falls before the guns of the sportsmen. Even the pot and market hunters inroads are only in cidents beside this drain. Formerly there was a State law which provided a bounty for the scalps of the fox, hawk and owl for just this reason; but it was repealed many years ago and since that time these natural enemies who pursue and are not pursued, have multiplied rapidly. The need for the appearance of this law upon the statutes again is apparent. No law would do more towards adding numbers to the bird coveys for it would instantly turn pot hunters into deputy game wardens, who would then hunt these natural poachers for their scalps on which a lawful price was set, in preference to seeking game which they cannot law fully sell. Let alone the havoc these pests do to game and take up the havoc they work with barnyard fowls and this feature alone, is sufficient to warrant the paying of a bounty and a liberal one, for their destruction.
