Western Landowners Alliance: The New Age Of Conservation

Conservation is a word that can have heavy political undertones and in some parts of the United States, it is a four-letter word. Often, conservation is pitted against landowners and agriculture as an either/or situation, and it shouldn’t be. Today, we are talking to Lesli Allison, CEO of the Western Landowners Alliance, an organization determined to change the relationship between landowners and conservation. This organization works with landowners, not against them to achieve terrific results in conservation.

What is Photoperiod And What Does It Have To Do With Turkeys?

How do turkeys know when mating season starts? If you know the answer to that question, please don’t spoil it for the rest of the listeners. Turkeys, like deer, elk, and most other wildlife have a defined mating season at the same time each year. Actually, the only animals I could find that don’t have a mating season are the Golden Spiny Mouse, the Tree Kangaroo, the Musk Shrew, the Long-Thumbed Frog, and a short list of others. Today, Jason Lupardus, CEO of Turkeys for Tomorrow, tells us how turkeys time their mating season so accurately, what changes in their behavior, and why some turkeys start their struts early.
