Gov. Jim Justice announced today that the West Virginia Division of Natural Resources is beginning a five-year project to restore northern Bobwhite Quail to the state. This bird is a native species and once was found across West Virginia, but the winters of 1977, 1978, and 1979 devastated the Bobwhite Quail in West Virginia.
