Texas Parks and Wildlife is into the fifth year of a long-term research project in the Cross Timbers ecoregion–in North Central Texas–that explores habitat needs of Rio Grande turkey.

Wildlife biologist, Kevin Mote, says, "There’s a lot of interest from landowners and definitely sportsmen, so it’s a high priority species. And not only that, when you manage for habitat that is good for wild turkeys, it is also managing that habitat for a whole suite of other native species."
