[QUOTE="svnmag, post: 364336, member: 330"] ^^^^Ruff population is extremely cyclic. I've never heard of turkey destroying nests but not calling bullshit. A problem in WV is beech trees never seem to hit anymore and wild cherry forests all seem old growth. My retarded speculation is birds get imprinted on food sources like koala bears. Koalas in zoos eat a variety of vegetation. In the below book Burt Spiller is featured in the "upland portion". In the early days of the last century he lamented his old New England apple orchard honey holes went dry seemingly as 'Ruff had lost his taste for them. Imagine the flavor of ruff breasts on a steady diet of apples and beech nuts...(beech nuts taste good). Fun Fact: In the Pilgrim days ruffed grouse were known as "fool's hens" as they could be chased down and killed with a stick. Similar lore is available for the eastern wild turkey: Flyers survived and passed on this gene. Again; (perhaps retard speculation from the armchair): A recessive gene has now assumed dominance with ND wild turkey. It's probably time to consider them a "pellet gun" pest and begin relocation efforts to the Appalachians. I promise if I lived in Minot proper I'd have a smoker, slicer and a fridge full of lunch meat. All I would need is a privacy fence, sunflower seeds and the location of Democrat neighbors. I'd maybe get them on board with a couple vac pacs and presenting myself as a penis equipped "woman". [ATTACH type="full" alt="1677471316173.png"]56963[/ATTACH] [/QUOTE]
