Wild Turkeys

by John E. Becker

Book Overview

Between seven and ten million wild turkeys lived in North America when the first Europeans arrived in the New World. Overhunting and habitat destruction nearly drove wild turkeys to extinction. But laws protecting wild turkeys and projects to reintroduce them have been extremely successful in reestablishing wild turkeys across America.
