Atherosclerosis in coronary, aortic, and sciatic arteries from wild male turkeys (Meleagris gallopavo silvestris)

American Journal of Veterinary Research, 1988
SUMMARY Heart, aorta, and sciatic arteries were collected from 157 wild male turkeys (Meleagris gallopavo silvestris) by hunters in 9 states during the spring 1983 and 1984 hunting seasons.

Landscape-Abundance Relationships of Male Eastern Wild TurkeysMeleagris gallopavo silvestrisin Mississippi, USA

Acta Ornithologica, 2017
The effects of landscape alteration on wildlife have drawn increasing attention from ecologists as landscapes have rapidly changed worldwide. Large-bodied birds are highly sensitive to habitat loss and fragmentation. We aimed to test two hypotheses concerning landscape-abundance relationships of male Wild Turkeys Meleagris gallopavo silvestris, the ...

Renicola hayesannieae, a New Kidney Fluke (Digenea: Renicolidae) from the Wild Turkey, Meleagris gallopavo silvestris Vieillot, from Mississippi

The Journal of Parasitology, 1972
A new trematode, Renicola hayesannieae, is reported from the kidney of 7 of 30 wild turkey, Meleagris gallopavo silvestris, from Tunica County, Mississippi. The new species appears to be more closely related to R. thaidus Stunkard, 1964, than to the other members of the genus.

Summer Meleagris gallopavo silvestris Use of a Landscape Dominated by Agriculture and Pinus spp. Plantations

Southeastern Naturalist, 2006
Abstract Meleagris gallopavo silvestris (Eastern Wild Turkey) habitat was altered in the Southeast by the introduction of Pinus spp. plantations to agricultural areas through the Conservation Reserve Program. However, the preponderance of M. gallopavo silvestris research has focused on extensive Pinus spp. plantations that lack the cover-type diversity

HIGH PREVALENCE OF MYCOPLASMA AND EIMERIA SPECIES IN FREE-RANGING EASTERN WILD TURKEYS (MELEAGRIS GALLOPAVO SILVESTRIS) IN ONTARIO, CANADA

Journal of Wildlife Diseases, 2019
Following extirpation from Ontario, Canada in the early 1900s, Eastern Wild Turkeys (EWTs; Meleagris gallopavo silvestris) were successfully reintroduced to the province in 1984. Despite the subsequent establishment of robust populations and biannual hunting seasons, data on the circulation of potential pathogens in these birds are lacking.
