Current understanding of lymphoproliferative disease virus in wild turkeys
Wildlife Society Bulletin, Volume 49, Issue S1, December 2025.Lymphoproliferative disease virus (LPDV) is a retrovirus that can cause a spectrum of disease in wild turkeys (Meleagris gallopavo), from subclinical infection to lymphoid tumors. We reviewed the literature to summarize our current understanding of LPDV, including disease presentation, surveillance, impact on fitness, spatiotemporal distribution, and ...

Female biased offspring sex ratios of eastern wild turkeys across the southeastern United States
Journal of Avian Biology, Volume 2025, Issue 5, September 2025.Prevailing theory suggests that sex ratios of offspring at birth should not differ from parity if costs of producing offspring of both sexes are similar. However, offspring sex ratios may deviate from parity when there is sex specific variation in fitness returns. We assessed offspring sex ratios of eastern wild turkeys (Meleagris gallopavo silvestris)

Abnormal eggs of Rio Grande Wild Turkeys on the Edwards Plateau, Texas
, 2008 We studied the reproductive ecology of Rio Grande Wild Turkeys (Meleagris gallopavo intermedia) in the Edwards Plateau region, Texas during 2005 and 2006. Runt eggs from a single adult female were observed through three nesting events over 2 years.

Accounting for non‐random samples with distance sampling to estimate population density
Journal of Applied Ecology, Volume 62, Issue 4, Page 986-994, April 2025.When using landscape features as survey lines, the density gradient and deer distribution can introduce either positive or negative bias, which makes it impossible to assess the bias introduced without auxiliary data. The estimator we developed can improve precision because we obtained a better fit to distance observations and accounts for non‐random ...

Wildlife Society Bulletin, Volume 49, Issue 1, March 2025.Wild turkeys were nearly extirpated from much of their range, but populations have been successfully restored owing to reintroductions and effective management. Although early taxonomists described five subspecies, their evolutionary relationships have been unclear.
