TURKEY HARVEST MANAGEMENT IN NEW YORK

open access: yesWildlife Society Bulletin, 1975
The turkey permit system with mandatory reporting and a pre‐hunting season banding program were initiated to determine the effect of varying fall hunting season lengths and hunting pressures on wild turkey (Meleagris gallopavo silvestris) populations. In

Genetic structuring and within‐flock relatedness of eastern wild turkeys

open access: yesWildlife Society Bulletin, Volume 49, Issue S1, December 2025.
We investigated the genetic structure and within‐flock relatedness of wild turkeys across sites in the southeastern United States. We found that the probability of within‐flock relatedness was lowest at a study site where spring harvest of males did not occur, and relatedness varied by sex and age relationships across study sites.

WILD TURKEY POPULATION CHARACTERISTICS IN NORTHERN PENNSYLVANIA

open access: yesWildlife Society Bulletin, 1975
Wild turkeys (Meleagris gallopavo silvestris) were historically absent in northcentral Pennsylvania. Extensive clearcutting in the late 1800's changed the forest from a coniferous to a hardwood type.

The role of management decisions in subspecies hybridization across wild turkey occupied range

open access: yesWildlife Society Bulletin, Volume 49, Issue S1, December 2025.
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 ...

Measuring congruence between available and selected vegetation at wild turkey nest sites

open access: yesWildlife Society Bulletin, Volume 49, Issue S1, December 2025.
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 ...

FOOD HABITS OF THE EASTERN WILD TURKEY ON AN AREA INTENSIVELY MANAGED FOR PINE IN ALABAMA

open access: yesWildlife Society Bulletin, 1980
The food habits of the eastern wild turkey (Meleagris gallopavo silvestris) were determined by dropping analysis on a 4,900‐ha area managed intensively for even‐aged pine in Choctaw and Sumter counties, Alabama from 1973 through 1977.

The Embryonic Transcriptome Of The Red-Eared Slider Turtle (Trachemys Scripta) [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
The bony shell of the turtle is an evolutionary novelty not found in any other group of animals, however, research into its formation has suggested that it has evolved through modification of conserved developmental mechanisms.

Geographical variation in male eastern wild turkey gobbling activity relative to female nesting chronology

open access: yesWildlife Society Bulletin, Volume 49, Issue S1, December 2025.
We investigated the temporal relationship between wild turkey gobbling and nesting and how the timing of these behaviors overlapped with the hunting season across three distinct physiographic ecoregions in North Carolina, USA. Although daily gobbling activity was highly variable within and among years, nest initiation timing was consistent across years
