Wild Turkey Observation Survey

We Need YOUR Help!

Hello everybody,

It's that time of year again - The ANNUAL SUMMER WILD TURKEY SURVEY!  

If you have helped in the past, THANK YOU and continue to send in those observations. If not, please consider participating this year. This is a very important population monitoring tool, but it's accuracy and value depend on how much participation we get. With declining turkey populations in some areas, your assistance is more important than ever.

The survey is very simple. Just record any turkeys you see during the months of July and August. You can use the attached survey form linked below to record your information. Then email, fax, or mail the completed forms to *Bob Long by September 10. You can also just email or text the information to him..whatever is easiest - just send him your observations!  

Also listed below is a 1-page guide with some tips to help identify turkeys in the summer months.  Remember to record ALL turkeys you see, not just broods.

Please distribute to anyone you know that may be interested. Thank you!
