Courtship display behavior influences tail myology in Centrocercus minimus (Gunnison sage‐grouse)

open access: yesJournal of Anatomy, EarlyView.
Courtship displays among birds are widespread, particularly those which incorporate raised tail feathers for extended periods of time. The Gunnison sage‐grouse (Centrocercus minimus) is such a species. When we compared the tail muscles of the sage‐grouse to birds which do not engage in erected tail fan postures, both morphology proportional mass ...

HABITAT USE AND SEASONAL MOVEMENTS OF WILD TURKEYS IN THE SOUTHEAST

open access: yesWildlife Society Bulletin, 1975
Habitat use and seasonal movement data were obtained from 105 eastern wild turkeys (Meleagris gallopavo silvestris) instrumented with radio transmitters and from other non‐instrumented birds at five study areas.

Feathers and flu: identifying data gaps in avian influenza host dynamics to prioritize wildlife conservation Plumas y gripe: identificación de datos faltantes en la dinámica de hospedadores de la influenza aviar para priorizar la conservación de la vida silvestre

open access: yesWildlife Monographs, Volume 225, Issue 1, September 2026.
We describe the host response continuum for highly pathogenic avian influenza viruses (HPAIV), including the continuum of host responses to HPAIV infection and exposure based on the primary axis of host competence, ability to infect other hosts, and host vulnerability.

WINTER ROOST CHARACTERISTICS OF THE RIO GRANDE TURKEY IN SOUTH TEXAS

open access: yesWildlife Society Bulletin, 1975
Winter roosts of Rio Grande turkeys (Meleagris gallopavo intermedia) were relatively close to permanent water. Roosts included above average size trees, were within close proximity to brush thickets and clearings, and contained relatively large numbers ...

NetB negative Clostridium perfringens infection associated with acute necrotic enteritis in mynah (Acridotheres tristis), grey partridge (Perdix perdix) and turkey (Meleagris gallopavo) [PDF]

open access: yesThe Iranian Journal of Veterinary Science and Technology, 2017
A non–enterotoxin (CPE)–producing Clostridium perfringens type A, associated with enteritis in a mynah (Acridotheres tristis), a grey partridge (Perdix perdix) and a turkey (Meleagris gallopavo) was characterized from cases with clinical symptoms from ...

In Silco Mapping of ESTs from the Turkey (Meleagris Gallopavo)

open access: yesAnimal Biotechnology, 2005
Sequence similarity was used to predict the position of expressed sequence tags (ESTs) in the genome of the turkey (Meleagris gallopavo). Turkey EST sequences were compared with the draft assembly of the chicken whole-genome sequence and the chicken EST database by BLASTN.

DNA barcoding for identification of species involved in wildlife strikes at Brazilian airports

open access: yesThe Journal of Wildlife Management, Volume 90, Issue 6, August 2026.
A collaborative network of 42 Brazilian airports applied DNA barcoding to identify 80 species involved in wildlife strikes. Among them, 32 species (17 birds and 15 bats) were not currently available in Brazil's wildlife strike reporting database, underscoring the value of molecular tools for strengthening wildlife strike monitoring. Abstract This study

BEHAVIORAL FACTORS INFLUENCING VARIABILITY OF ROOST COUNTS FOR RIO GRANDE TURKEYS

open access: yesWildlife Society Bulletin, 1975
Small winter flocks of Rio Grande turkeys (Meleagris gallopavo intermedia) used many more satellite roosts than did larger flocks on the Welder Wildlife Refuge in south Texas.

Spatial and temporal variation in survival of female wild turkeys

open access: yesThe Journal of Wildlife Management, Volume 90, Issue 5, July 2026.
We monitored 370 female wild turkeys across North Carolina's 3 ecoregions from 2020‐2022 to understand factors influencing their survival. Female survival varied by ecoregion and behavior state, with the incubation period having the lowest survival rates. None of the land cover variables affected survival.
