I love seeing turkeys in the wild and had no idea they were reintroduced to our area in the 1960s. In Kansas, the Department of Wildlife, Parks, and Tourism monitors turkey populations and regulates turkey hunting. The Department even has a Wild Turkey Committee! All this regulation reminds me that wildlife is a little less wild than we might think.
