S.C. Turkey Density Map

Charles Ruth is the Deer and Wild Turkey Project supervisor for the S.C. Department of Natural Resources (DNR).

Ruth said, "Wildlife Section biologists attempt to update density distribution maps for deer, wild hogs, and turkeys on a periodic basis. It has been about 10 years since the wild turkey density distribution map was updated, and turkey numbers have moderated due to poor reproduction in recent years. The new map represents biologists' best estimate of the current turkey distribution across the state based on harvest and population trends."
