BDN, Phys.org report on UMaine wild turkey disease study
The Bangor Daily News and Phys.org shared a new University of Maine-led study where researchers identified the prevalence of potentially lethal lymphoproliferative virus in wild turkey populations statewide and the factors that can influence their chance of infection. Their research can help inform management strategies, such as harvest and translocation regulation, and support any future investigations into the possibility of disease transmission between wild turkeys and other fauna.
