A spring quail hunting season will open this Saturday, the 10th of April to the 30th of April, from two hours before sunrise until noon, including Monday-Friday, Saturdays, Sundays and public holidays.

The Government said that it welcomes the Ornis recommendation to open the season and the national quota for this season is 2,400 quails and there will be no individual quota.

In a statement, the Ministry for Gozo said that, “quail hunting is in itself a solitary activity. All directives that have been issued and can continue to be issued by health authorities are applicable to everyone, including this sector.”

The Government reiterated its call for “quail hunting only,” saying that “everyone must abide by the parameters of the law.”
