Title: Lovett Williams new Ocellated turkey DVD...
Post by: wiltznucs on July 18, 2010, 04:40:50 PM

I picked it up when I purchased his new book on the ocellated.  Very interesting video which shows the Ocellated turkey's behavior, vocalizations, where they live, and how they are finally being managed.  Come to find out the Ocellated's number one predator isn't American turkey zealots or exotic creatures..... its native subsistence hunters.  The Ocellated's definitely a different animal than our wild turkeys.  Some of the mating behavior is downright bizarre...

They are a neat looking turkey.  I have one of Lovett's early tapes which only had, I think, one of there vocalization on it.  Thanks for sharing this info!

I'm considering it for sure.  Maybe in a year or two... I need a hunting partner, you game?
