Texans may see and hear more wild turkeys this spring, thanks to collaborative efforts between Texas A&M AgriLife and the Texas Parks and Wildlife Department. Restoration efforts have successfully increased the state’s wild turkey population, with ongoing research focusing on habitat conservation and genetic diversity to ensure these iconic birds continue to thrive across Texas’s diverse ecosystems. Landowners are encouraged to support conservation by preserving and enhancing turkey habitat on private lands, benefiting not just turkeys but a variety of wildlife species.
