The wild turkey, synonymous with Thanksgiving and iconic within our region, has not always held such a stable place in Massachusetts. There was a time when turkeys were overhunted nearly to the point of extinction. Thanks to a reintroduction program begun in the 1970s, turkeys can now be found throughout the state in urban, rural, and suburban areas.
In this program, Patti Steinman, the education coordinator for Mass Audubon’s Connecticut River Valley Sanctuaries, will talk turkey about the nature, history, and conservation needs of these native birds.
This program is offered in collaboration with the Bacon Free Library and the Tewksbury Public Library.
