SOUTH TEXAS TURKEY CRAWL
Season 2, Episode 4

Stephen West joins Caesar Kleberg Wildlife Research Institute as they conduct experiments to create artificial turkey roosts. The Rio Grande wild turkey makes up the majority of the turkey population in Texas. Still, those populations are waving, especially in South Texas where natural roosting sites are scarce. Roosting sites provide the safety and even food wild turkeys need to sustain a healthy population. What does it take to successfully identify where a roost will thrive in the South Texas terrain?
