Reproductive asynchrony within social groups of female eastern wild turkeys
Ecology and Evolution, 2022 AbstractCoordination in timing of reproduction is driven by multiple ecological and sociobiological processes for a wide array of species. Eastern wild turkeys (Meleagris gallopavo silvestris) use a male dominance polygynous mating system, where males communicate with females via elaborate courtship displays and vocalizations at display sites.

Values for Several Blood Parameters in Eastern Wild Turkeys
Poultry Science, 1977 Abstract Hematocrit, hemoglobin and plasma levels of cholesterol, glucose and total protein were determined for three groups of eastern wild turkeys (Meleagris gallopavo silvestris). One group consisted of 112 blood samples obtained, by making collections every two weeks, from four pen-reared birds over a 13-month period.
