Welcome to Wild Turkey Science, a podcast made possible by Turkeys for Tomorrow.

I'm Dr. Marcus Lashley, Professor of Wildlife Ecology at the University of Florida.

And I'm Dr. Will Gulsby, Professor of Wildlife Ecology and Management at Auburn University.

We're both lifelong hunters and devoted scientists who are passionate about hunting,

managing, and researching wild turkeys.

In this podcast, we'll explore turkey research, speak to the experts in the field, and address

the difficult questions related to wild turkey ecology and management.

Our goal is to serve as your connection to wild turkey science.

Are you excited about this one?

You know, I was going to open, I was going to open by saying, I've got a big surprise for you today, Marcus, and that's that I'm excited about this episode.

Yeah.

But I genuinely am as I am many of our episodes, but especially this one because, you know, I think finding out

how we can connect landowners with resources that can help them implement a lot of the things

that we talk about on this podcast is something that has been, you know, burning in the back

of my mind to get out there for a long time now.

And we've got, you know, a couple of guests today that I think can really help shed

some light on that and help us get there.

Yeah, for sure.

Just to add to that, I'd definitely get the question pretty often from landowners about

cost share programs.

And it's hard for me to even keep up with what is cost shareable, honestly,

especially when we start bouncing around states.
