Certain states used to not allow quail hunting if there was snow on the ground. Not sure if any states still have this rule.

I believe the impetus of this was that quail are more susceptible to cold and rely on covey groups to maintain warmth, etc

Also I have heard hunting them can be seen as easier with snow because of tracking and finding them in out of the wind, south facing brush etc. Making a perceived unfair advantage.
