SURVIVAL OF EASTERN WILD TURKEY MALES IN WESTERN KENTUCKY
: 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. Average annual survival rates differed between juvenile

3: RESTORATION OF THE EASTERN WILD TURKEY IN MISSOURI
Missouri's pre‐Columbian wild turkey (Meleagris gallopavo silvestris) population is estimated to have been 250,000 to 400,000 birds. Settlement in the late 1800's reduced virgin forests by 50 percent and eliminated the turkey from more than 83 percent of

Population response of eastern wild turkey to removal of wild pigs [PDF]
AbstractThere is insufficient understanding of interspecific interactions with the eastern wild turkey (Meleagris gallopavo silvestris) and wild pigs (Sus scrofa). Wild pigs compete with wild turkeys and predate nests and adults; however, population‐level effects on wild turkeys are not clear.

STATUS OF WILD TURKEY RESTORATION IN EAST TEXAS
Wild turkey restoration efforts in east Texas began in the early 1940's. From then until the early 1950's penreared eastern wild turkeys (Meleagris gallopavo silvestris) were released in one county and wild‐trapped Rio Grande turkeys (M. g.

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