ROOSTING BEHAVIOR OF MALE EASTERN AND RIO GRANDE WILD TURKEYS
: Roosting behavior is poorly understood relative to other facets of wild turkey (Meleagris gallopavo; hereafter, turkey) ecology. However, GPS technology has provided an opportunity to detail aspects of roosting behavior that have traditionally eluded ...

Evaluation of reproductive phenology, space use, and ecology of the eastern wild turkey (Meleagris gallopavo silvestris) in west-central Louisiana [PDF]
Nest site selection is a driving demographic force behind eastern wild turkey (Meleagris gallopavo silvestris) populations. However, previous research was likely not focused on the actual time of nest site selection, considering that nest site selection ...

The role of management decisions in subspecies hybridization across wild turkey occupied range
This study used DNA from hunter‐collected feathers across 29 U.S. states and Ontario to assess how past management actions, such as translocations and subspecies introductions, have shaped genetic admixture in wild turkeys. While admixture levels did not differ between historic and introduced ranges, they were influenced by management practices ...
