HISTORIA NATURAL, DOMESTICACIÓN Y DISTRIBUCIÓN DEL GUAJOLOTE (Meleagris gallopavo) EN MEXICO [PDF]
Ecosistemas y Recursos Agropecuarios, 2014 El estudio histórico de los pavos o guajolotes en México se ha complicado por las diferentes sinonimias que se le dan a la especie, porque los primeros estudiosos del tema los confundían con otras especies de características similares y por la presencia ...

NESTING AND SURVIVAL OF RIO GRANDE TURKEYS IN NORTHCENTRAL TEXAS
Wildlife Society Bulletin, 2000 : We studied survival and habitat use of female Rio Grande turkeys (Meleagris gallopavo intermedia) during the nesting period in the Rolling Plains and Cross Timbers ecotone of northcentral Texas.

Review of range-wide vital rates quantifies eastern wild Turkey population trajectory. [PDF]
Ecol Evol, 2023 Using a life‐stage simulation analysis, we show survival and reproduction of adult female wild turkeys had the greatest influence on population trajectories for this species. However, these life stages showed differing patterns in elasticity and variability, with adult survival having high elasticity but low process variance, and reproduction having ...

The Effects of Prescribed Fire on Artificial Wild Turkey Nest Survival in Closed-Canopy Mixed Hardwood Forest. [PDF]
Ecol EvolThe eastern wild turkey has declined in portions of the Southeast, raising concerns about how large‐scale prescribed fires might affect nest success. To explore this, we conducted an artificial nest study in Alabama's Talladega National Forest, where prescribed fires cover large burn units annually.

Do movement behaviors identify reproductive habitat sampling for wild turkeys? [PDF]
Ecol Evol, 2016 Using high‐frequency GPS data from wild turkeys, we show that the long‐standing assumption of hierarchical habitat selection to identify nest sites may be incorrect. As such, habitat selection may not be the proximate driver of nest success and hence population‐level fitness.

Ungulate browsers promote herbaceous layer diversity in logged temperate forests. [PDF]
Ecol Evol, 2016 Ungulates are leading drivers of plant communities worldwide, with impacts linked to animal density, disturbance and vegetation structure, and site productivity. We examined the effects of (1) white‐tailed deer and (2) moose + white‐tailed deer on the herbaceous layers of regenerating temperate forests 5–6 years after canopy removal by logging ...

Roosting ecology of Gould's wild turkeys in southeastern Arizona
The Journal of Wildlife Management, Volume 86, Issue 7, September 2022., 2022 Gould's wild turkeys are spatially restricted to mountainous semi‐arid areas of southwestern United States, and Mexico, and information on their distribution and habitat use is limited. Roost sites were selected at moderate elevations and were predominately on north‐facing slopes with slight incline, suggesting little plasticity in selection of roost ...

Habitat diversity influences puma Puma concolor diet in the Chihuahuan Desert
Wildlife Biology, Volume 2021, Issue 4, 2021., 2021 Habitat heterogeneity and corresponding diversity in potential prey species should increase the diet breadth of generalist predators. Many previous studies describing puma Puma concolor diets in the arid regions of the southwestern United States were focused within largely xeric locations, overlooking the influence of heterogeneity created by riparian ...
