Spatial and temporal variation in survival of female wild turkeys
The Journal of Wildlife Management, Volume 90, Issue 5, July 2026.We monitored 370 female wild turkeys across North Carolina's 3 ecoregions from 2020‐2022 to understand factors influencing their survival. Female survival varied by ecoregion and behavior state, with the incubation period having the lowest survival rates. None of the land cover variables affected survival.

A scalable integrated population model for estimating abundance for gamebird management
Journal of Applied Ecology, Volume 63, Issue 5, May 2026.Our O‐IPM presents an efficient and practical approach for estimating wildlife population demographics, particularly in situations where data collection is limited. This study demonstrates how information from intensive, localized research can be leveraged to inform broader‐scale management through strategic use of prior information.
