About this episode

The episode discusses the importance of active habitat management for turkey conservation and the implications of the No Mow May and June movement.

Turkey season may be over, but the habitat work that drives turkey populations forward is just beginning. Adam and Chad discuss how turkeys quickly returned to their farm after neighboring properties stopped illegally baiting birds, while also highlighting the critical need for more prescribed fire to improve nesting and brood-rearing habitat. They also tackle the growing "No Mow May" and "No Mow June" movement, explaining why active habitat management—not simply letting grass grow—is the key to long-term turkey conservation.
