turkeys in Algonquin

[DanO]

I saw one up around the Barron Canyon. North East side of the park.

That's just down the road from Acchray. Mnr said there were poulets crossing the road last summer.

I've seen them along hwy 522 west of Golden Valley last year, kind of suprised me at first.

heard them out in the bush at the cottage in that area.
was really surprised at first as well.
haven't seen one yet.
did see them between the north bound and south bound lanes of 11 just north of Huntsville a couple years ago.

I seen a bunch in the field a couple years ago on 518 East just before you get to forest tower road on the north side of sand lake.

I see one on the side of the road every time I drive through Algonquin.

This winter will be the big test. If this doesn't wipe them out in Algonquin, nothing will! Supposedly the winters were too harsh for them to establish in Algonquin. We'll see!

We've had them around the West gate of the park for almost a decade now.

Wow....I'm so sorry to hear that. Had I known I would never have supported their reintroduction.

MNR has posted an EBR (#012-672) for comments on including WMU's 42-47-49-50 in the spring hunt and WMU 59 in the fall hunt. Number have increased in these areas and they have noticed.

I worked in the Park for three months in the summer and never saw one...

But see them all the time up north. In the Haliburtons, everywhere, Peterborough county, lots of places... But I've only seen them in fall/winter, but maybe that's just my luck...

here's some in Minden town;

I have a cottage near Kearney and I seen them up there now. I have also noticed them on rain lake road which leads to the east side of the park.
