[QUOTE="Allen, post: 491846, member: 389"] That's interesting as I had never heard of turkeys being a problem to other upland birds before now. I went looking for sources of info on the topic and most of what I found were people referencing this as primarily untrue as there's only one documented case of a wild turkey intentionally predating other upland bird young. For example, from the Univ of Tennessee: [URL]https://fwf.tennessee.edu/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2020/07/Do-wild-turkeys-influence-quail-or-grouse-populations.pdf[/URL] Mostly they suggest turkeys, quail, grouse and pheasants have interactions, but of these birds the turkeys are the least picky when it comes to habitat and population declines in the other upland birds are related to changes in the landscape.
