Relationships between cattle grazing and Rio Grande wild turkeys in the southern Great Plains [PDF]

open access: yes, 2005
Previous studies on the response of female and male turkeys to grazing have produced conflicting results, warranting further investigation. Our objectives were to quantify habitat use by female Rio Grande wild turkeys (Meleagris gallopavo intermedia ...

What Makes a Dog? Stable Isotope Analysis and Human-canid Relationships at Arroyo Hondo Pueblo

open access: yesOpen Quaternary, 2018
Domesticated animals in the prehispanic American Southwest/Mexican Northwest functioned in many roles, but these roles seem to have varied across time and space.

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 ...

PREDATOR COMMUNITY AND RESEARCHER‐INDUCED IMPACTS ON NEST SUCCESS OF RIO GRANDE WILD TURKEYS IN TEXAS

open access: yesWildlife Society Bulletin, 2010
: Rio Grande wild turkey (Meleagris gallopavo intermedia) populations in Texas appear to be declining, and poor nest success could be contributing to the decline.

Assessing spatial ecological patterns of wild turkey relative abundance across North America

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

Rio Grande Wild Turkey in Texas: Biology and Management [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
20 pp., 2 maps, 1 graph, 35 color photos, 5 tablesOver-hunting greatly reduced populations of the Rio Grande Wild Turkey in Texas. Now, however, restoration efforts and harvest limits are helping the birds make a come-back, and many landowners want to ...

SEASONAL HABITAT USE AND HOME RANGES OF RIO GRANDE TURKEYS IN OREGON

open access: yesWildlife Society Bulletin, 2000
: We investigated seasonal habitat use and home ranges of 76 females in a recently established Rio Grande turkey (Meleagris gallopavo intermedia) population in southwestern Oregon from February 1989 through June 1991 to provide information for wildlife ...

Assessing the potential of unoccupied aerial vehicles and deep learning to survey wild turkey populations

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

EVALUATING RIO GRANDE WILD TURKEY MOVEMENTS POST CATASTROPHIC WILDFIRE USING 2 SELECTION ANALYSIS APPROACHES

open access: yesWildlife Society Bulletin, 2015
: Few data exist examining response of Rio Grande wild turkeys (Meleagris gallopavo intermedia; hereafter, turkeys) to wildfires. Additionally, GPS technology may provide new insights into habitat selection.
