The Iowa Department of Natural Resources (DNR) is looking for help with its annual wild turkey production survey. During the months of July and August, wild turkey sightings are recorded to estimate this year’s nesting rates and nest success. To participate, note the date and county in which the turkey was seen, if it was an adult female or adult male – males have beards on their breast – and if and how many poults (baby turkeys) were present. Annual population surveys conducted by the DNR are an important component of managing the wild turkey. Turkey populations can fluctuate annually across all regions of the state. All participation is appreciated. The survey is available online, and the link can be found with this news story at KCIIradio.com
