As we know there is an elevated interest in wild turkey science within the turkey hunting community, we are working to bring you numerous updates and research summaries from the 13th National Wild Turkey Symposium in Kansas City, Missouri.
This episode includes conversations with authors or presenters from papers included in the "Disease Ecology and Predation" session:
"Influence of lymphoproliferative disease virus on behaviors of female easter wild turkeys during reproductive periods" — Chamberlain et al. (https://wildlife.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/wsb.1632)
"The Notorious P.I.G.: Wild pigs are not primary predators of wild turkey nests" — Collier and Chamberlain (https://wildlife.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/wsb.1618)
Additional guests include the NWTF's Ricky Lackey.
