Wild turkeys were as exotic as elk when I was growing up in Northwest Indiana in the 1990s. Turkeys were something my Kentucky family hunted down south. Not something we chased in the cornfields and small woodlots surrounding my home. Then, through the efforts of public/private partnerships, turkeys began showing up. Now that we had them, habitat had to be created and managed to keep them. For the last 10 years, the National Wild Turkey Federation (NWTF) has been working to do so with their initiative Save the Habitat. Save the Hunt.
