Just wishful thinking

I also wonder about what happened to the turkeys in Caswell, especially southern portion. I drive hundreds of miles in that county every week, saw only 3 hens in 2021. Habitat has not changed as I can tell. There is a lot of hunting and trapping of nest predators relative to other countries (maybe not like in the fur boom). So I wonder about hunting pressure and illegal hunting pressure too

I've killed two turkeys in Caswell Co in the last six years. It ain't me that has caused them to disappear.

Now that I think about it I've only killed two in the entire state since 2015.

I can tell what’s hurts them around here if it’s not predators, hay production. I try to be careful but I ran over a nest yesterday and found a raided nest.
