Ok guys, grouse or Moose do not eat turkeys. Nor do turkeys eat grouse, LOL !!Predators such as bobcats or coyotes do not material effect turkey populations. Birds this spring are down because of recruitment of poults last spring. Very wet and cold and a lot of poult die off. They will be back next year if we do not have a cold wet spring and early summer. Our NH turkey kill will be weighted to mature birds due to this.
