Here in Vermont, the wild turkey was reintroduced when about 30 were released in 1969. This year, the Fish & Wildlife Dept. just said, we have an extimated 40,000. I see the flocks almost daily on my commute to work. I've also seen whitetail deer, bald eagles, flocks of Canada geese, moose and more.
Spring turkey season runs the month of May, and I'll be out there for sure!
I like living in a wild place. Not quite as remote as you are, though!
