Maine's official table lists "Ruffed Grouse & Bobwhite Quail" as a single combined row, not a separate species entry. Bobwhite quail has no established wild population in Maine and is not part of any state stocking program (unlike pheasant). This appears to be a long-standing administrative pairing rather than an active quail hunt. Flagged for human review on product display.
Confirmed absence: no wild Maine population and no state stocking program. Bobwhite quail is administratively combined into a single regulatory row with ruffed grouse ("Ruffed Grouse & Bobwhite Quail," shared bag limit) as a long-standing administrative artifact, not an active managed hunt.
