LANDSCAPE METRICS RELATED TO RIO GRANDE WILD TURKEY WINTER ROOSTS IN SOUTH TEXAS

Wildlife Society Bulletin, 2010
: Roost sites may be a limiting factor for Rio Grande wild turkey (Meleagris gallopavo intermedia) distribution. Because the landscape context of roost sites may influence use of these sites, it is important to understand roost‐habitat characteristics ...

5: STATUS OF THE INTRODUCED RIO GRANDE TURKEY IN NORTHEASTERN IOWA*†

Wildlife Society Bulletin, 1973
After the extirpation of the eastern wild turkey (Meleagris gallopavo silvestris) in Iowa, several unsuccessful attempts were made to reestablish turkeys in the wild. Then, during the winter of 1960‐61, 39 Rio Grande turkeys (M. g. intermedia) from Texas

Do movement behaviors identify reproductive habitat sampling for wild turkeys?

Ecology and Evolution, 2016
Selection of habitats has regularly been suggested to influence species demography at both local and broad scales. The expectation is that selection behaviors have positive benefits via greater fitness or increased survival.

WILD TURKEYS AS MONITORS OF INFECTIOUS DISEASES

Wildlife Society Bulletin, 1975
Wildlife are usually considered vectors, reservoirs, or primary targets of infectious disease. This paper illustrates that they can also serve as sentinels of disease activity. In Texas, the Rio Grande wild turkey (Meleagris gallopavo intermedia) is well

REPRODUCTIVE PARAMETERS OF RIO GRANDE WILD TURKEYS ON THE EDWARDS PLATEAU, TEXAS

Wildlife Society Bulletin, 2010
: Rio Grande wild turkey (Meleagris gallopavo intermedia) abundance has declined in portions of the Edwards Plateau of Texas since the late 1970s. Because reproductive performance influences population dynamics, our objectives were to evaluate how hen ...

DNA barcoding for identification of species involved in wildlife strikes at Brazilian airports

The Journal of Wildlife Management, Volume 90, Issue 6, August 2026.
A collaborative network of 42 Brazilian airports applied DNA barcoding to identify 80 species involved in wildlife strikes. Among them, 32 species (17 birds and 15 bats) were not currently available in Brazil's wildlife strike reporting database, underscoring the value of molecular tools for strengthening wildlife strike monitoring. Abstract This study

Evaluating wild Turkey movement ecology: An example using first‐passage time analysis

Wildlife Society Bulletin, 2014
Recent advances in animal tracking technology have increased interest in the field of animal movement ecology. Numerous methods have been developed to extract information from animal movement paths that can be used to link movement behavior to external ...

CHRONOLOGY OF RIO GRANDE WILD TURKEY FLOCKING BEHAVIOR IN THE TEXAS ROLLING PLAINS

Wildlife Society Bulletin, 2010
: Rio Grande wild turkey (Meleagris gallopavo intermedia) winter flocks are often >200 birds on the roost. Evaluations of winter flock congregation timing and potential climatic correlates that may influence this behavior are lacking.

Impact of Reproductive Effort on Survival of Rio Grande Wild Turkey Meleagris Gallop Intermedia Hens in Texas [PDF]

Wildlife Biology, 2009
The southeastern portion of the Edwards Plateau of Texas, historically a stronghold of Rio Grande wild turkeys Meleagris gallopavo intermedia , has seen the numbers of turkeys declining since the 1970s. Because hen survival is a key parameter affecting turkey population dynamics, we monitored

30: LAND‐USE PRACTICES AND RIO GRANDE TURKEYS IN TEXAS*

Wildlife Society Bulletin, 1973
Populations of Rio Grande turkeys (Meleagris gallopavo intermedia) in Texas are now closely correlated with areas of least human activity located where mean annual rainfall is 16 to 32 inches.
