Is wild turkey habitat selection spatially consistent? A three‐decade meta‐analysis in Mississippi
This study used a nearly three‐decade meta‐analysis of telemetry data from Mississippi to evaluate whether eastern wild turkey habitat selection is spatially consistent across different landscapes. It found that turkeys exhibit a functional response to total forest cover—selecting it less intensely where it is abundant—and that selection for hardwood ...

As wind energy development expands across the Great Plains, there is potential to adversely affect species that require undisturbed tracts of native grasslands, such as the lesser prairie‐chicken Tympanuchus pallidicinctus. Effects of wind development on lesser prairie‐chicken (LEPC) movement and demographic rates have been minimal when turbines are ...
