The U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (Service) and Mexico are working together to save the masked bobwhite quail. Near extinction, the last wild birds were found in Mexico in the 1970's and 80's and were gathered to begin a captive breeding program in the United States. The U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service is now partnering with Africam Safari in Mexico on a new breeding facility that may help recover the species. This week, officials from Mexico and the Service toured the facility and celebrated this important partnership.
