Abstract:

We provide data and statistical program files related to Northern Bobwhite (Colinus virginianus) resource selection during fall and winter in southwest Missouri. Working in five Missouri Department of Conservation conservation areas (Robert E. Talbot, Shawnee Trail, Stony Point Prairie, Wade and June Shelton Memorial, and Wah’Kon-Tah Prairie) from October 2017 through January 2019, we captured 158 bobwhite from 67 unique coveys and attached transmitters to 119 individuals. From this base collection we created 650 choice sets, comprised of 1 used location and 3 available (i.e., random) locations, that represent 90 individual bobwhite from 47 unique coveys.
