This assertation has been presented here before and it has been scientifically and conclusively proven wrong, period.
Both Dave Suponski as well as Edgar Spencer have the scientific evidence on file.
I've heard that opinion about turkeys v. grouse before but there are too many other contributing factors not to be included in the very complex equation. And it is recently also a scientifically proven fact that WNV is responsible for a significant percentage of ruffed grouse mortalities.
