I live in Arkansas and red tail hawks are very abundant. I had a hawk take down one of my decoys by the head before.

Hi I’m Zane I’m on my moms phone how many times have you won a turkey calling competition 😊

Yessir! And beautiful turkey 🦃

Black bears eat more turkey eggs then any other predator ten fold.

Lion: damn thought he was a liberal.

i thought this was going to be about nest destruction by predators. The raccoons and opossums would be number 1 by far. People talk about the bobcat and coyote population exploding but nobody talks about the raccoon population. 20 years ago you never seen a raccoon on garbage night here in PA. Now on garbage night i see enough to make 5 full length coats. if you have the right habitat, food and mild winters the population would be stable. With humans approaching everywhere that's hard to find

Mountain Lion be like, "understandable, have a nice day."

This is some good stuff thank you

Beautiful. You are blessed

Que belleza

In WY winters killed them, they would get going and a bad winter would decimate them.

My dog wants to be, he is pissed at the two hens that have turned his yard into their turkey highway, lol. My area is loaded with every kind of predator North America has and turkeys are absolutely thick here, I guess its abundant food because the predators sure are not making a dent in the population.

Scary. The gunshot didn’t even scare it. 😳

In Texas, fire ants.

Speak to him in Spanish.

They’ll make you lose your religion. 😊

Holly shit

Racoons at night also.

In Wisconsin its raccoon. Opossum. But fisher showed up with bobcats and a couple brutal winters and our bird population fell drastically. They coming back a little now but they need luck to get back to sustainable Numbers. Dnr could not care less. Scumbags.

In the live free or die state where I live, we have found that raccoons go in cycles. When their numbers are in the up cycles domestic chickens are attacked and eaten, and turkey eggs are eaten alot and drastically limit the number of turkey chick's that are born in early summer. The When the racoon numbers reach a high enough limit, nature takes over, the raccoons come down with rabies and die out, then the cycle starts all over again. For years there's lots of turkeys.

A state biologist for the region told me years ago that the worst was racoons. That was some years back before the bobcats got so thick. Doesn't really matter. If you want to hunt game animals and game birds you need to be actively involved in predator control or enable somebody that can

Last fall I watched a young black bear chase a flock of turkeys out of a meadow. He almost got one but they got away.

Humans

I used to have flock's of turkeys all the time on my property , now they're pretty much gone . I saw two areas of feathers torn from them . Don't know what is killing them . Would domestic cats dare attack turkeys or would racoons?

“A turkeys hearing works in conjunction with its eyes to detect danger” WOW,who would have ever imagined that. This guy needs a raise

Adult mortality has little effect on overall population compared to nesting success and poult survivability.

It seems since the bobcats came the turkeys diminished. We used to have turkeys in the yard year round and haven't had any for quit a few years now.

So when I coon kills 12 eggs I personally count that as 12 dead poults. I didn’t hear the mention of coons. Nest predators I assume kill more birds than anything else. But also heard you mention adult birds a few times

I despise wild turkeys. They decimated the quail population on a half section of farm I hunted for years when their population exploded on it. They find a newly hatched nest and gulp those baby quail down like grasshoppers. And the amount of money my state wants for a tag is ridiculous. I hunt a different piece of ground now. Just me on 60 acres. Woods, soybeans and pasture. Very few quail. Very few. Turkeys galore.

Wouldn’t care after seeing that show!

One year there was a bob kitty around the farm seen it a few times and there was turkey feathers every place you looked last time i seen that cat he was never sen again and the next year the turkey fearhers werent laying every place

I've killed a lot of coyotes over the years spring gobbler hunting, got 2 coyotes this spring, I hunt a big farm in Braxton County West Virginia that I get both gobblers and coyotes there usually every year

Niceeeee 🤙🏼

Chris was the perfect person to teach in this video. Good job

I can’t believe how much ground it covered when it lounged at him.

Waited too long……what if the gun misfired?

First of eis that a true Osleanda Wild Turkey or a sub species

Extremely invasive grass.

Scary game of peek-a-boo.😮 That camouflage👀 now you see me, now you don't; now you see me, aaand now you don't...i would have tried to kill it at first sight; my brain would have been calculating for the kill instantly...which is why I stay out of wildlife territories. Period. I don't want to get mauled or die, and I don't want to kill anything. I don't want to know what that feels like...

Mint scented trash bag filled with corn, buttermilk, lots and lots of yeast and a six pack of cheap beer. Oh on MY property?? I don't have any property but my neighbors do!!

I keep a few out year round. Already got our targets picked out for the fall

La verdad NO sé que CHINHADOS HACES allí y caminando, si ya sabes lo q te puedes encontrar, el animal está en su habitad, recuerda tu eres el ANIMAL Q ESTA INVADIENDO, NO SE VALE Q LE.AYAS DISPARADO, Q MAL.POR TIII 👎👎👎👎👎👎👎👎👎👎👎👎👎👎👎👎👎👎👎👎👎👎👎👎👎👎👎COMO SIEMPRE, A DONDE LLEGAN LOS HUMANOS ACABAN CON TODO, MUUUUUYY MALLL

Good hatch and pretty good survival, but they still have a little ways, but it's looking good.

U miss

Horrible shot

None in ne ks yet

Thanks for freaking out the domestic and wildlife... asshole!

This guy wouldnt survive a trout attack😂

“Spee-seas” 😂

Keep your ass in texas
