18: PARASITISM AND DISEASE AMONG SOUTHEASTERN WILD TURKEYS*

Wildlife Society Bulletin, Volume 1973, Issue S1, Page 159-167, January 1973., 1973
ABSTRACT During the 6 years from 1964 to 1970 nearly 400 eastern wild turkeys (Meleagris gallopavo silvestris) were examined for parasites and diseases. Adult and immature turkeys from Alabama, Arkansas, Mississippi, and West Virginia have been studied on an annual or semi‐annual basis for 3 consecutive years, and additional information has been ...

19: SOME DISEASES OF WILD TURKEYS FROM TEXAS AND WISCONSIN

Wildlife Society Bulletin, Volume 1973, Issue S1, Page 169-173, January 1973., 1973
ABSTRACT From 1964 to 1969 livetrapped wild turkeys from a study area in southern Texas and turkeys shot during the hunting seasons in west‐central Wisconsin were tested for evidences of various types of encephalitis and several other diseases. Serologic, bacteriologic, and hematozoic methods of analysis were used on sera extracted from the turkeys ...

Dual transmission hotspots: Behavioural interdependence amplifies disease risk from anthropogenic feeders in a communal roosting bird species

Ecological Solutions and Evidence, Volume 7, Issue 1, January–March 2026.
Due to behavioral interdependence, wild turkeys aggregate at both anthropogenic feeders and linked roost sites. These congregations have the potential to create dual transmission hotspots, driving disease transmission during both daytime foraging and nighttime roosting Abstract Anthropogenic food sources (e.g.

24: EVALUATION OF GAME‐FARM AND WILD‐TRAPPED TURKEYS IN PENNSYLVANIA*

Wildlife Society Bulletin, Volume 1973, Issue S1, Page 199-209, January 1973., 1973
ABSTRACT The relative merits of game‐farm and wild‐trapped stock in establishing self‐sustaining turkey populations in Pennsylvania were studied over a 16‐year period, from 1951 to 1967, by banding 10,590 game‐farm turkeys. Releases of both types were evaluated on nine study areas ranging in size from 25 to 275 square miles.

Coccidian Parasites of Wild Turkeys, Meleagris gallopavo silvestris, in Illinois [PDF]

, 1979
Fecal samples from 124 wild turkeys (Meleagris gallopavo silvestris), collected in three southern Illinois counties, were examined for coccidia. Three and two tenths percent (4) of the birds sampled were infected with Eimeria of apparently four different

Mm19, a Mycoplasma meleagridis Major Surface Nuclease that Is Related to the RE_AlwI Superfamily of Endonucleases. [PDF]

, 2016
Mycoplasma meleagridis infection is widespread in turkeys, causing poor growth and feathering, airsacculitis, osteodystrophy, and reduction in hatchability. Like most mycoplasma species, M.
