His explanation was that having them come to the location and feed/poop would cause other birds to feed/poop and then lead to excessive disease exposure. Then turkeys would die…. I never thought anything about it bc I never fed/feed them. If that’s his thought process, I Wonder what his opinion on chicken litter as fertilizer would be.

Had a game warden in our loop of friends years ago tell us that feeding turkey was a bad thing. His explanation was that having them come to the location and feed/poop would cause other birds to feed/poop and then lead to excessive disease exposure. Then turkeys would die…. I never thought anything about it bc I never fed/feed them. Makes sense. Nothing in the woods poops around a food source, natural or put there by man. Insert sarcasm toward the GW. lol.

If you havent watched the video the research they will be doing is on how corn feeders effect the coon populations

A population increase is different than seeing more in one area at a food source.
83% of all statistics are made up.

I thought the same.. we spread a lot of it and have a nice population increase this season… but most of what we spread has been through a heat but I know since antibiotics have been taken out, it has to be worse than years past..

If the question is "What does a corn feeder do to the local racoon population?", all they need to do is go to one of their old publications. If you look on page 130 of their publication "Biology and Management of the Whitetailed Deer in Alabama", from the OA website, you will see a trough-style feeder with 25+ racoons piled in and around it. I have pictures of my last working feeder being torn up from racoons hanging off of the spinner, breaking it off of the hopper.

Their legislature is allotting a certain amount every year to their turkey research. Vs AL begging the department to fund a project.... which they don't
I swear by my life and my love of it that I will never live for the sake of another man, nor ask another man to live for mine

Gobbler,,, I doubt after they spend 2 or 3 years of doing this they find out more than "you" already know . We'll see .  I predict when the findings of this study come out it will be met with a lot of scrutiny and criticism......
