Measuring congruence between available and selected vegetation at wild turkey nest sites
We evaluated whether female wild turkeys (Meleagris gallopavo ssp.) differentially selected vegetation characteristics on the first day of egg laying across 164 nesting attempts and 492 travel paths. Vegetation conditions at nest sites were commonly available along movement paths, and visual obstruction did not influence nest success, suggesting nest ...

Assessing spatial ecological patterns of wild turkey relative abundance across North America
We jointly modeled observational data from camera traps and citizen science to assess the spatially varying effects of land cover and climatic variables on wild turkey (Meleagris gallopavo) population abundance across the continental United States. The strongest spatial variation in covariate effects was for temperature and precipitation, suggesting ...

We flew UAVs with thermal cameras over roost locations of GPS‐tagged wild turkeys to assess the viability of UAVs as a population survey tool. We trained a deep‐learning model to detect and count turkeys in thermal video, and were able to incorporate environmental variables to accurately estimate the number of wild turkeys sampled.
