Review of range‐wide vital rates quantifies eastern wild Turkey population trajectory [PDF]

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, 2023
Recent declines in eastern wild turkeys (Meleagris gallopavo silvestris) have prompted increased interest in management and research of this important game species. However, the mechanisms underlying these declines are unclear, leaving uncertainty in how

RESTORATION AND STATUS OF THE EASTERN WILD TURKEY IN OKLAHOMA

open access: yesWildlife Society Bulletin, 1985
Abstract: The eastern wild turkey (Meleagris gallopavo silvestris) occurred throughout most of Oklahoma prior to settlement. With increasing settlement in the late 1800s and early 1900s, eastern turkey populations declined.

SURVIVAL OF EASTERN WILD TURKEY MALES IN WESTERN KENTUCKY

open access: yesWildlife Society Bulletin, 2000
Abstract: From 1995 to 1999, we monitored 366 radiomarked male wild turkeys ( Meleagris gallopavo silvestris ) in western Kentucky to obtain estimates of survival, cause‐specific mortality, and harvest rates.

REPRODUCTIVE ECOLOGY OF EASTERN WILD TURKEY FEMALES IN THE EASTERN MISSOURI OZARKS

open access: yesWildlife Society Bulletin, 2000
Abstract: We studied reproductive ecology of radiomarked eastern wild turkey ( Meleagris gallopavo silvestris ) females in the eastern Ozarks of Missouri on 2 study areas during 1990–98. Across years and study areas, nesting rates ranged from 45.3 to 100%.

SURVIVAL AND DISPERSAL OF EASTERN WILD TURKEY MALES IN WESTERN KENTUCKY

open access: yesWildlife Society Bulletin, 2005
Abstract: From 1995 to 2002, we monitored 526 radiomarked male wild turkeys ( Meleagris gallopavo silvestris ) in western Kentucky to obtain estimates of survival, cause‐specific mortality, harvest rates, and dispersal distance. Average annual survival rates differed between

Interannual breeding site fidelity in eastern wild turkey flocks

open access: yesWildlife Society Bulletin
Abstract Understanding space use during key life‐history periods is critical to understanding demographic outcomes of most species. For gregarious species, similar space is often shared by individuals and across generations during these key periods. The eastern wild turkey ( Meleagris gallopavo

SURVIVAL OF EASTERN WILD TURKEY MALES IN THE EASTERN MISSOURI OZARKS

open access: yesWildlife Society Bulletin, 2005
Abstract: From 1988 to 2000, we monitored 487 radiomarked male wild turkeys ( Meleagris gallopavo silvestris ) on 2 study areas (South Study Area [SSA] and Peck Ranch Conservation Area [PRCA]) in the eastern Missouri Ozarks.

Role of kinship in sociality of female eastern wild turkeys

open access: yesWildlife Society Bulletin
Abstract Female eastern wild turkeys ( Meleagris gallopavo silvestris ) exhibit seasonal variation in gregarious behaviors, forming larger winter flocks that dissolve into smaller social groups prior to the onset of reproductive activities.

Factors influencing productivity of eastern wild turkeys in northeastern South Dakota [PDF]

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, 2020
AbstractPopulation growth is highly sensitive to changes in reproductive rates for many avian species. Understanding how reproductive rates are related to environmental conditions can give managers insight into factors contributing to population change.
