April 2013 - March 2015
Personnel
Participating Agencies
- New York Department of Environmental Conservation
We are developing a decision framework that evaluates optimal fall harvest management strategies relative to the achievement of ecological and social objectives. The project involves the development of wild turkey population models for predicting the effects of management actions as well as providing a decision framework that will be useful for other harvest-related decisions.
