Abstract:

Abstract:Wild turkeys (Meleagris gallopavo) were in serious trouble, especially in the eastern part of the country during the 1940s and 1950s. Years of overharvest, habitat degradation and a total disregard by the public were responsible for the complete loss of wild turkeys in 19 states. Faced with the problem of bringing back the wild turkey, wildlife managers resorted to using game‐farm‐reared turkeys. All of the states attempting to restore turkey populations using game‐farm turkeys reported their efforts failed, except for Michigan. Perfecting the technique of cannon‐netting of native wil

Abstract:

According to the literature poultry occupies a leading position in the structure of the meat market. The leader in poultry farming is the production of broiler meat both in the world and in Ukraine. However, in recent years the interest in growing turkeys and turkey meat production increased sharply, as a lucrative business and an alternative to pork and beef. It is estimated that in the world turkey's meat consumption has increased from 1,5 million tones to 5,5 million tones in recent years Israel is the world leader in annual consumption of turkey meat (13.1 kg per head), and USA is the worl

Selection for increased muscle mass in domestic turkeys has resulted in muscles twice the size of those found in wild turkeys. This study characterizes muscle structural changes as well as functional differences in muscle performance associated with selection for increased muscle mass. We compared peak isometric force production, whole muscle and individual fiber cross-sectional area (CSA), connective tissue collagen concentration and structure of the lateral gastrocnemius (LG) muscle in wild and adult domestic turkeys.

For profitable meat production, it is necessary to use certain breeds of modern turkeys, which are distinguished by the highest conversion of feed into meat. They consume less food and turn it into meat in a very short time. Each period of the life of a turkey grown on fact

Abstract:An important research area regarding the wild turkey (Meleagris gallopavo) is development of sound habitat models. Habitat models provide standardized methods to quantify wild turkey habitat and stimulate new research hypotheses. Habitat suitability index (HSI) models show species‐habitat relationships on a scale of 0‐1, with 1 being optimum. A proposed HSI model for Merriam's turkeys (M. g. merriami) was applied to data we collected at Merriam's turkey locations and random sites in the Black Hills, South Dakota. We tested this model, assuming that if all available habitats were suita

Abstract:

The membership of Turkey into the European Union has remained as controversial as ever, even at this point when countries like U.K are leaving the EU, Turkey's membership in the Union is still being discussed in many circles. Though at this point it is clear Turkeys drive to join the EU appears to have dropped drastically and many believe that citizens of Turkey may no longer be interested in being part of the EU, the truth, however, remains that Turkey will always want to be in the EU, despite whatever disappointment. The pessimistic views are seen to be the result of previous disappointments

Abstract:

The aim of this study was to evaluate carcass quality and analyze gastrointestinal functional status, ochratoxin A (OTA) accumulation in tissues and organs, and the health status of turkeys fed diets contaminated with OTA and supplemented with synbiotic preparations in comparison with commercial probiotic feed additives. The research involved 120 female BIG 6 turkeys, divided into six treatment groups (five replicates, four birds per replicate). Wheat naturally contaminated with OTA (662.03 μg/kg) was used in turkey diets. Turkeys in group 1 received an OTA-contaminated diet without additives.

Abstract:Prior to European settlement, wild turkeys (Meleagris gallopavo) were present in Michigan south of a line from Saginaw Bay to the mouth of the Muskegon River. Habitat loss and overexploitation during settlement led to the extirpation of turkeys from Michigan in the late 1800s. Several restoration attempts followed in the early 1900s; however, it was not until the mid to latter part of the last century that restoration efforts were successful. As a result, wild turkeys currently occupy much of their ancestral range and beyond, providing Michigan residents with quality hunting and wildl

Abstract:

Colored varieties of turkeys, such as the broad-breasted Bronze, not currently subject to intensive breeding work, are kept only in amateur breeding and treated rather as ornamental poultry. They are raised in extensive systems, which undoubtedly affects the quality of the meat obtained. Consumers are looking for meat with specific and unique sensory qualities; hence, the interest in meat from turkeys with a slower-than-typical growth rate, such as the broad-breasted Bronze, is justified. The object of this research was to analyze the physicochemical properties and nutritional value (amino aci

However, few studies have assessed habitat overlap between mesocarnivores and turkeys with a goal to understand potential impacts of mesocarnivores on turkeys. We captured and radiomarked bobcats, coyotes, and Wild Turkey hens in southern Illinois during 2011–2013 in an agricultural landscape and created single-species resource selection and overlap models.
