The Turkey Biology Every Hunter Should Know, with Dr. Mike Chamberlain

The turkey hunters of America need a biology lesson. There are so many things we don’t fully understand. Like why exactly do toms gobble at owls? Does the camo pattern we wear even matter? And what about the bigger questions: Why are wild turkey populations seemingly declining in so many places? What should game agencies and hunters do about it? We sit down with Dr. Mike Chamberlain, a professor at the University of Georgia who has been researching (and hunting) wild turkeys for the past 30 years.
