Even if I felt the need to "defend" or "cull" myself against animals. I'd always feel the need to take a moments thought that I've just killed one of "Gods" beautiful creatures. Yes, I do this with gnats when I squish them. Which is a very last resort!

Quail are ground dwellers and prefer to run instead of fly. When they do take flight it's only for a few yards at about 4-10 feet in altitude.
