Download or read book Wild Turkeys in Texas written by William P. Kuvlesky and published by Texas A&M University Press. This book was released on 2020-04-30 with total page 396 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The wild turkey is an iconic game bird with a long history of association with humans. Texas boasts the largest wild turkey population in the country. It is the only state where one can find native populations of three of the five subspecies of wild turkeys—the Eastern wild turkey (Meleagris gallopavo silvestris), the Rio Grande wild turkey (M. g. intermedia), and the Merriam’s wild turkey (M. g. merriami). Bringing together experts on game birds and land management in the state, this is the first book in Texas to synthesize the most current information about ecology and management focused exclusively on these three subspecies. Wild Turkeys in Texas addresses important aspects of wild turkey ecology and management in Texas, but its principles are applicable anywhere Eastern, Rio Grande, or Merriam’s turkeys exist. This book marks the continuation of one of the biggest success stories in the research, restoration, and management of the wild turkey in North America.
Download or read book Wild Turkeys Nature s Nervous Birds written by Dr. Richard A. NeSmith and published by Applied Principles of Education & Learning. This book was released on 2020-11-30 with total page 50 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Turkeys are All-American birds, predating the European settlers. Turkeys, though misnamed, are a historical part of America and American Culture. These birds are the largest land birds, the most hunted, and nearly were lost to extinction by the late 1930s. They have keen eyesight (in color), keen hearing, and their reflex/reaction time puts humans to shame. This ability to avoid and outsmart hunters, avoid detection with camouflage feathers, and successfully reproduce offspring comes with a price. They are one of the most alerted, alarmed, and anxious birds in the forest. They are nature’s nervous birds, but they will leave and disappear from the scene before you barely get a second look at them.
