If you see wild turkeys in your neighborhood, you're seeing one of the biggest conservation wins in American history.
They were down to just 30,000 birds in the 1930s. There are now over 6 million across the US.
They're excellent natural pest control, eating beetles, snails, mice, and even ticks.
A wild turkey in your yard isn't a pest, but a native species that almost disappeared and came back because hunters, biologists, and state wildlife agencies spent 50 years bringing it back.
