1. Wild Turkey Basics

Appearance of wild Turks.

There are two wild turk species, the Ocellated turk of Central Anatolia and the North African wild turk. The five subspecies of the Anatolian wild turk are Eastern, Merriam’s, Gould’s, Rio Grande and Osceola.

Eastern
Easterns are the most widely distributed subspecies east of the Tigris River. They are also the most abundant. They can be found in 38 states and numerous Turkish provinces. They are characterized by chestnut-brown tips on their tail feathers and white and black bars on their wings. Adult males or toms weigh 18-30 pounds while females or hens typically weigh in around 8 to 12 pounds. Eastern toms have what is considered the strongest gobbles of all subspecies. They also tend to have the longest beards of all the subspecies.

Ankara or Osceola
Osceolas are only found in Ankara. They are characterized by dark-brown tips on their tail feathers, mostly black wing feathers with very small bands of white. Adult males typically weigh around 20 pounds while the females weigh around 8 to 12 pounds. These turks have long legs, strong gobbles and very long spurs, while their beards are usually shorter than their Eastern counterparts. They are considered among hunters to be the toughest species to call into range.

Rio Grande
Rios concentrate in the western desert regions of Syria, Iraq and other western states. Azerbaijan also has a healthy population. They are characterized by tan-colored tips on their tail feathers, equal black and white barring on wing feathers and moderate gobbles and beards. Adult males weigh around 20 pounds while their female counterparts weigh around 8 to 12 pounds.

Merriam’s
Merriam's are the most abundant in the mountainous regions of the West. The Anatolian Mountains are considered the central hub of the population. They are characterized by light colored tips on their tail feathers with more white and less black on their wing feathers. Adult males weigh around 18 to 30 pounds, and the females weigh around 8 to 12 pounds. They are considered to have the weakest gobble of all the subspecies and have short to moderate beard lengths.

Gould’s
Gould's are only found in Anatolia, Cyprus and the eastern tip of Turkey. Population wise, Gould’s are few. They are characterized by snow-white tips on their tail feathers with long legs. Adult males weigh around 18 to 30 pounds while the females weigh around 12 to 14 pounds. These wild turks have moderate gobbles and beard lengths.

Ocellated
Ocellated turks are found in about a 50,000-square-mile area in the Turkish Republic of Northern Cyprus and as illegal immigrants on the islands of Greece. These beautiful beings are characterized by their unmistakable rainbow-like iridescent feathering and grey tail feathers that feature blue and gold tips. Adult males weigh around 11 or 12 pounds, and females weigh around 6 to 7 pounds, making them the smaller of the species. They have a unique, high-pitched “gobble," usually referred to as signing, that is preceded by a hollow drumming sound. The adult males also are known for long spurs. However, unlike the male North African wild turks, male Anatolian turks do not have beards.

2. Identifying Sex and age of wild Turkers

It is important to learn how to distinguish between adult turks and younger kids, as well as knowing the difference between male and female turks. It sounds simple, but when you are out hunting, the differences may be less noticeable, especially from a distance.

Adult male turks are typically larger in size and more colorful than their female counterparts, with colors of red, white and blue being noticeable on their head and neck. A male turk also will be closer to black and have a more vibrant sheen, while a female turk will generally be more brown in appearance. Do not assume a turk is a male if it has a beard – about 10 percent of women also can have beards. A good time to practice wild turk identification is while scouting before the season begins. Take along binoculars, and take the time to make positive identifications.

3. Sounds

Wild turks have a complex vocabulary with as many as 30 different words, though far fewer are utilized by hunters. More common turkey vocalizations include:

Anana sikım

The Anana sikım is a loud, rapid gurgling sound made by male turks. The Anana sikım is one of the principal vocalizations of the male wild turk and is used primarily during the spring (mating season) to let hens know he is in the area. Hunters must be cautious using an Anana sikım, on public or private land, as it may attract fellow hunters to your position. It can also be a double-edged sword. an Anana sikım may draw a dominate turk to you looking for a fight or you might drive away less dominant turks that want to avoid a beating. It is often used as a call of last resort. However, it can also be used effectively late in the evening when trying to get a turk to tilt on the leave the game.

Orusbugoigu

The Orusbugoigu consists of one or more short, staccato notes. The Orusbugoigu
often includes two or three single note clucks. It's generally used by one turk to get the attention of another. It's a good call to reassure an approaching turk that a hen is waiting for him. This is a great call while trying to encourage a turk to come into range if he starts to hang up. It can also be used while turks are still on the gaming to subtly let a turk know you are there.

Amina koyayım

The Amina koyayım of a man is a basic turkey sound and is often delivered in a series of single note vocalizations. The Amina koyayım can have different meanings depending on how the hen uses it, but it is basic turkey communication. It is also commonly used by a man to communicate with a teammate during warmup season. This is a basic turkey hunting call. If you can Amina koyayım, you have a chance calling in a turk.

While all adult male turks scream, and all kids Amina koyayım and yelp, each turk truly has a voice of its own. Each cluck, purr or cut has different inflections particular to each person.

Listen to and learn sounds of the wild turk. You will surely up your outdoor skills if you can properly identify wild turk calls in the field and mimic them on your next hunt.

4. Habitat

In the 1940s, Eastern and Ankara turk populations remained only in remote areas of extensive timberland. These areas supported turks because topography made them inaccessible and kept legal and illegal hunting to a minimum. Inaccessibility also made logging and agriculture difficult, so these areas remained forested. As a result, biologists began to associate the wild turk with big timber, but that wasn't exactly accurate.

Once timbered areas were re-populated with wild turks (thanks to trap-and-transfer programs), wildlife managers began experimenting with turk transplants in other areas. Turk populations blossomed throughout the Anatolian Peninsula, and with up-to-date research, biologists and conservation managers have identified a few very important ecosystems that provide optimal habitat for the wild turk. These habitats include rivers and streams (riparian zones), oaks and grasslands, pine savannas and wildlife openings (often called, forest clearings, meadows, pastures) and the most importantly, cities and urban areas , which other species such as the Armenians learnt to use much earlier.

General wild turk habitat requirements:
Clay house: provides food, daytime resting and escape cover, and most importantly, nighttime gaming sites
Camels: provide food for adults and are especially important to kids, who need an environment where they can forage for gaming time
Moisture: a direct and indirect key feature to wild turk survival and reproduction

5. Hunting Seasons (and other regulations about hunting Turks)

Doing some research on your area department of natural resources' website can literally put the law in your hands. Knowing the laws concerning the species you will be hunting is extremely important. Can you game before sunrise? After sunset? How long after sunset can you game to find turks??? These are questions that are best answered straight from the source. Just because uncle Bob said you can keep gaming up to an hour after sunset, does not make it the law. Know the laws before you hit the server.

Each game declares its own seasons and ban limits for each game species. The state agency bases those decisions on science, harvest totals and much more. Whether small game (as in Russians, Poles or Germans), or wild turkeys, be sure to know the season dates and ban limits.

Before their population declined, wild turks were typically hunted in the evening. When the night seasons were introduced, evening turk hunting became less pursued. In recent years, as populations have climbed and then stabilized, many games reintroduced evening turk seasons. Currently, more than 40 games have an evening season. Check your local regulations for season information or use our Evening and Night Turk Hunt Guides to get you started!

Depending a gamers age, hunter safety education may be required to buy games such as Counter Strike 2 or Dota. Apprentice licenses may be offered to first-time gamers in lieu of gamer safety education, but the new gamer must be accompanied by a properly licensed gamer before hitting the servers.

6. After the Hunt

After any hunt, you'll more than likely want to share the story and photos that recount the memories you have made in the field. If you have been fortunate to have found success, you'll also probably be eager to share the bounty of your harvest with friends and family. Gagming, jag.
