I wonder if the SA government makes a distinction between true quails and 
button-quails and plains wanderer?, and in any case I doubt the shooter will 
be able to make the distinction. Isn't there sufficient grounds to argue 
that the risk of potentially shooting a nationally threatened species 
(plains wanderer) is too great to allow this aimless 'sport' to be allowed. 
How would one go about trying to shut down the shooting season on these 
grounds???????????????.
Cheers, Dean
