Abstract
The restoration of wild turkeys to Iowa’s landscape has raised concern on the impact turkeys may have on crops. Large flocks are often seen throughout Iowa during winter, and are occasionally viewed as a nuisance in agricultural areas. This pamphlet was developed to address turkeys and crop depredation issues, and a key for identifying species responsible for crop depredation is included. Benefits of wild turkeys to farmers, hunters, and wildlife enthusiasts are discussed in the pamphlet.
