Are There Really Fewer Turkey HuntersWe hunters hear it all the time, "Hunter numbers are declining." But, are hunter numbers really declining? Are the number of turkey hunters declining as well?This week, Andy Gagliano and Cameron Weddington host Dr. Will Gulsby and Dr. Marcus Lashley to discuss hunter recruitment trends, particularly for turkey hunting. Marcus Lashley presented research indicating an aging turkey hunter demographic and scrutiny of national survey data suggesting a decline in hunter numbers, while state-level data presented by Cameron Weddington showed increases in many states.Listen in!

This week we're joined by our good friend, Dr. Marcus Lashley, a.k.a. @drdisturbance, from the University of Florida to discuss the beginnings and future of a recent study involving Osceola subspecies turkey poults. His team incubated wild turkey eggs from nests that were unfortunately abandoned in their wild setting, hatched them, and will be collecting all sorts of data while the little miracles live and grow inside very large enclosures on the UF campus. It branches into a wider research discussion where we learn how they capture and band and the importance of the Florida Corridor. Listen, Learn and Enjoy. Send a text message to the show!

Putting Your Best You Forward with Landowners with Dr Jack Schafer This week, Dr. Jack Schafer joins Cameron and Andy on the show to talk about an interesting topic of how to present your best you when approaching a landowner to gain access to his/her property for turkey hunting. This episode is full of very interesting and useful verbal and nonverbal cues to look for when speaking with a landowner and also gestures and verbiage we can use to increase our odds of getting a "Yes" when we knock doors to ask permission.  Also, in this episode, I have a brief discussion on the show with Dr's Marcus Lashley and Will Gulsby regarding an upcoming workshop they are putting on discussing techniques and considerations landowners should take to compile a habitat management plan for our properties. This should be an amazing workshop, and I encourage any landowners from around the southeast to attend. Lots of great info in this episode, so listen in!

In this episode, I had the honor of interviewing Dr. Marcus Lashley. Dr. Lashley is host of Fire University is co-host of the Wild Turkey Science. Dr. Marcus is assistant Professor at the University of Florida's Department of Wildlife and Ecology. In this episode, we discussed more about fire ecology, but also discussed fire behavior and safety. Fire is one of the ultimate tools in wildlife management, but there is a time and place. Inappropriate times will lead to disaster. Let's use prescribed fire in the safest way, but also the most effective way.Fire University Podcast:https://fireuniversity.libsyn.com/Wild Turkey Sciencehttps://turkeysfortomorrow.org/wild-turkey-science-podcast/Forest Service s130 and s190 Online Training:https://www.fs.usda.gov/detail/angeles/fire/?cid=FSEPRD1059372

Ahead of a forthcoming mini-series on forest management for birds, Adam and Jarred discuss a paper reviewing the state of the science examining bird responses to forest management in the eastern U.S. The paper published last year by Michael Skresh and colleagues presents a compelling case for the importance of managed disturbances in eastern forests to benefit birds of conservation concern.

Dr Marcus Lashley and Dr Will Gulsby have been driving home the point of habitat management for turkeys since rhe launch of their Wild Turkey Science podcast but in this week's episode we're talking predators! We're not talking about what predators do to nests nearly as much as the debate on what trapping and social media may do to hunters in general. Please listen in to hear our perspective on trapping and social media. #Forloveoftheland

In this weeks episode we are gearing up for turkey season! We are joined by Dr. Marcus Lashley of the University of Florida, and The Wild Turkey Science Podcast, as well as Mark Wiley who serves as a biologist for the Ohio Department of Natural Resources - Division of Wildlife. In this episode we discuss the ever growing need of good turkey habitat management, and what that all entails. For any serious turkey hunter this is a must listen podcast to prepare you for setting your property up for long-term success.   FOLLOW US HERE: Facebook:        https://www.facebook.com/HuntSciencePodcast YouTube:         https://www.facebook.com/HuntSciencePodcast Instagram:       https://www.instagram.com/huntscience_podcast/ Twitter:            https://twitter.com/HuntSciencePod Website:          http://www.huntsciencepodcast.com Email:              elance@huntsciencepodcast.com   If you would like to learn more about the podcast, head on over to our website at www.HuntSciencePodcast.com.

Put your listening ears on for this one! We have a heavy hitter coming at you as we interview Dr. Marcus Lashley and Dr. Will Gulsby from Wild Turkey Science Podcast. We review in great detail the recent podcasts revolving around the essential habitat needed for reproduction of the wild turkey. To no surprise the conversation quickly gets to the importance of early successional vegetation on the landscape for nesting and brood rearing cover. It was found in a recent research project that 45% of the hens selected only 7% of the landscape consisting of the early successional cover and shrubland. Not surprisingly, there was a 38% success rate in these areas for nests, which is pretty exceptional for maintaining and growing turkey populations! After covering these staggering numbers, we then shift the conversation towards baiting and the implications it has on the landscape and how it largely impacts predators in a very positive way. Baiting is not a practice that we would support or suggest if you are interested in producing more turkeys on the landscape. We hope you share this podcast with everyone who cares about the wild turkey.

First and foremost, this episode's purpose is to be informative and perhaps shine a light on an issue that could potentially be doing much more harm than good. We are joined by Dr. Marcus Lashley and Dr. Will Gulsby to discuss a subject that hasn't been talked about much; the effects of baiting/supplemental feeding on wild turkeys. I assure you that you don't want to miss this one. 

This week Dr. Marcus Lashley aka Dr. Disturbance of the University of Florida Deer Lab joins us to talk turkeys. We consider Marcus a homeboy and love talking with him whenever we get a chance. It doesn't take long for the conversation to morph into a discussion of the Osceola subspecies of the wild turkey. Rich with legend and lore, the Osceola is a remarkable bird that resides in some beautiful and unique habitat. We touch on a lot of information that any turkey hunter will find interesting.

Creating Better Brood Habitat with Marcus Lashley Part 2 This week, Cameron and Andy bring the last half of the Marcus Lashley seminar on creating better brood habitat from the Alabama state chapter of the NWTF Field Day from August 2022. This episode is full of useful information that all of us turkey hunters can use to improve our turkey populations on our hunting properties. This is also a great episode to share with other turkey hunters as well. Listen in!

Creating Better Brood Habitat with Marcus Lashley This week, Cameron and Andy share part of the Alabama NWTF Field Day seminar where Dr. Marcus Lashley talks about brood habitat. The general theme of Dr. Lashley's seminar is that as a whole brood habitat is severely lacking across the US. We all already know that having great nesting habitat is essential to having good hatches, but creating great nesting habitat is extremely difficult to do because there is not one particular habitat that hens are likely to nest in.  According to Dr. Lashley better brood habitat is much easier to create because it has several features that are commonly found in the different areas around the US. This is an excellent presentation, and we have part 1 of 2 for you this week. There is definitely something to be learned by all of us from this week's show and next week's show. Listen in!

On todays episode we are joined by Marcus Lashley, the director of the UF Deer Lab. Marcus shares some information about the rut, the conditions that help to start the rut, as well as shares some cool experiments done to help test rut theories. He will DEBUNK a few myths involving the rut, hog and deer relationships as well as a deer's diet. We will chat about predators, specifically the FLORIDA PANTHER and it's effect on a deers movement. He discusses CWD as well as what to do if you happen to come within range of a radio collared deer while hunting. This is guaranteed to be a super educational episode full of knowledge for everyone but especially those hunting in the sunshine state.

We often hear people say “we just don't have the genetics to grow big deer around here”. On today's podcast we dive into this topic with Dr. Lashley as a follow up to a podcast he had done on Fire University titled “ Fire as a Tool to Increase Nutrient Availability in Lactating Does”. In a lot of cases it's the deer adapting to what you have provided them and has nothing at all to do with genetics. Join us as we dive into this hot topic and explore what might be going on.

Whether it's from fear of red meat allergy or Lyme's disease, it's safe to say that most people don't hope to find a tick on them during routine checks. In this episode, Marcus introduces longtime friend and newly hired UF Assistant Professor of Wildlife Ecology and Management Dr. Carolina Baruzzi.

This week on the Gamekeepers podcast we welcome one of our favorite guests, Dr. Marcus Lashley (@DrDisturbance), from the University of Florida. We begin by discussing summer scouting for desirable plant species, while many are blooming and easier to identify PLUS how to gauge them as indicator species. We also give a tip on an app or two that can help a Gamekeeper ID them. The presence of these plants or lack thereof can be important information to a Gamekeeper. Marcus also explains a recent study on “oak masting,” and how this information can help improve your hunting. It's commonly thought that many trees of the same species synchronize and drop their mast/acorns at the same time, but the study shows some interesting insights.  It's the 100th episode, but the guys don't reminisce much and get right to the subject matter.

When is the best time to burn? Does burning even work? How exactly can it help my deer herd? This week, the guys sit down with Dr. Marcus Lashley, Assistant Professor, Wildlife Ecology & UF DEER Lab Director at the University of Florida, to talk about controlled burns and habitat considerations for whitetails. Marcus gives some insight on how and when to burn and provides some tips on how you can complete your own 'Bow-Range Burn' in the offseason. Burn-talk isn't the only thing on our minds. The guys are also riffing on time and space continuum deer, traveling matriarch coyotes, smart-as-hell does, and plenty of suggestions from Marcus regarding whitetail cover.

This week Dr. Marcus Lashley of the UF Deer Lab joins us to talk about burning. We discuss when, why, what equipment and permits you need, and we try to demystify a management tool that many are leery of incorporating into their annual practices. Marcus is brilliant at explaining the process. Of course, Toxey, our own self-admitted pyro, joins the discussion but first tells the story of Mr. Fox's latest buck, (a big 11 point) that you don't want to miss.

Disturbances for Wild Turkeys with Marcus Lashley   This week, ecologist, turkey hunter, and all around great guy, Marcus Lashley joins Cameron and Andy to talk about creating disturbances for wild turkeys.  Land clearing, creating fields, establishing warm season grass habitat, and fires are just a few of the topics discussed in this week's episode.  This is an episode you won't want to miss. If you want more turkeys on your property, you can have more turkeys by creating better habitat for turkeys. Listen in!

Grab your pens and paper, because you are getting ready to learn on this podcast with Dr. Marcus Lashley. We take a deep dive into the production, selection preferences of red versus white oaks, and forage habitats of whitetail deer regarding mast production. Just like most things in life, once you learn a little, you are left with more questions versus answers. For years hunters have placed more significance on the white oak acorn over the red acorn. This isn't often debated, more accepted, however, that is nonsense. There is more to learn about these little nuggets of fat than we thought. Acorn viability is there determining factor in the timing of foraging. What about fall burning, how does that impact selection of mast species? Well, we discuss this as well during the podcast. Come to this podcast with an open mind! The foraging behavior of whitetail deer is just incredible, so land managers and deer hunters need to pay attention and learn how to make the most of this quality information.  Land & Legacy is Powered by Simplecast

After enjoying the conversation on the other podcast this week with Dr. Marcus Lashley so much, we felt it was best to further unpack why this information is significant and how it can be applied to your land. With every guest and topic, we do, this is the question we want to address and answer as plainly as possible. So Matt and Adam spend an hour discussing with you the ways we can be more productive and set up farms in relation to acorn mast-producing trees. How do we hunt based on this information is another question we answer during this podcast recap. Of course, we do address the question of which acorn is more impactful to deer, red or white? We hope you enjoy this podcast and take the information to heart!

Fire was playing an important role in upland hardwood ecosystems when the current mature oaks germinated a century ago. While those mature oaks are still common in the overstory, the next generation of oaks to replace them are not present across much of the central hardwoods and Appalachian regions. Instead,  fire exclusion over the last several decades allowed mesophytic (moisture-retaining) species like sweetgum and red maple to get established and begin a transition to non-oak dominance in these forests. In this week's episode of Fire University, Dr. Marcus Lashley sits down with Dr. Heather Alexander of Auburn University and Dr. Steve Brewer of the University of Mississippi to discuss the role of fire in ensuring oak forests continue to flourish into the next generation, how changes in fuels and flammability affect our ability to burn, and why the problem is more complex than just reintroducing fire.

In writing this description, there is the notion that it should be written. In the broader culture, there are activists, lobbyists, and politicians who make decisions about activities that should be engaged in that inevitably affect the natural world. In this manner, value judgments abound regardless of conscious awareness. Simultaneously, another process often informs these decisions. Dr. Marcus Lashley is a professor, podcast host, and lab director with a passion for nature and its study. Burning forests and hunting animals may not seem like interests of someone who loves ecology, yet they are. When it comes to nature, even our seemingly unnatural processes are part of it.

In today's episode, Jason talks with Marcus Lashley. Marcus is an assistant professor at the University of Florida where he has focused his extension program on understanding the role of soil disturbance and fire ecology in managing wildlife habitat, particularly of game species. Since spring has sprung, or is trying to, mother nature is providing us with a lot of green scenery. The annual green up and last week’s podcast got Jason thinking about how mother nature never leaves the ground bare. To that end, how can we provide good, nutritious vegetation for wildlife with as little effort as possible. To talk about just that, Jason spoke with Marcus over the phone.  Fire isn’t something that is widely used in northern states so we have a lot to learn from the south states how to use prescribed fire to benefit turkey, deer, and other wildlife. You can find Marcus on Twitter and at ufl.edu.

Author Alexandra Lange, “The Design of Childhood: How the Material World Shapes IndependentKids”, on the evolution of playground design.

Marcus Lashley tells us why prescribed fire is so important for deer and other wildlife. When should you burn to get the most benefit? What kind of fire should be used in hardwood stands? All this and more.

Jason and Tim talk with Dr. Marcus Lashley to set the record straight on hinge cutting and the hot new topic of "mineral stumps" for deer. The discussion compares the most popular habitat improvement projects that every landowner can tackle: mineral stumps, hinge cutting and hack and squirt. The "deer guys" discuss when to apply each practice and Dr. Lashley shares his ground breaking research showing massive upregulation of key antler growing nutrients from the roots of freshly cut trees to the mineral sprouts are readily accessible to deer.  The why, when, how and science behind mineral stumping for deer. Increasing carrying capacity for deer.

Jason interviews Brad Doyle http://www.eagleseed.com/ from the legendary soybean company: Eagle Seeds.  Get your cliffs notes PhD in plant breeding as brad shares the differences between forage soybeans and conventional ag beans and how that relates to our whitetail food plot needs. Brad explains how you can double the total number of branches on a soybean plant (more grain!) and produce larger leaves that equate to more biomass for deer.  More biomass equate to larger antlers. Learn about soybean maturity groups and which is best for your application. Brad and Jason discuss why soybeans that are bred to be green long after your farmers are brown and harvested equates to larger antlers and a forage crop that is known as the "King of Protein." We tell how tall, vining forage soybeans also serve as cover for mature bucks.  Maximizing a bucks genetic potential for antler growth with forage. Some soybean companies advertise their products high oil content but brad discusses the physiological evidence that high soybean oil comes only at a cost of lower protein content: an inverse relationship! Learn about shatter resistance and does it really matter? Learn about deer research by Dr. Steve Demarais, Dr. Bronson Strickland and Dr. Marcus Lashley. Learn why its important to read seed bag labels.  Maternal effects in whitetails. Jason discusses why he dislikes the over use of the "P" word: Preference.  Brad offers the science behind why showing preference is a little more complicated than sitting in your stand and observing whitetails.  Eagle offers conventional ag beans of all maturity groups as well as their famous forage beans.

In this episode we visit with Marcus Lashley, habitat management specialist in the MSU Deer Lab, and talk with him about a novel habitat management technique we call mineral stumping. Marcus and Bronson will discuss what mineral stumps are, how to create them, why deer love them so much, and how you can use mineral stumps to boost deer nutrition on your property and create more hunting opportunities.

We continue our discussions of predator impacts on deer herds with Dr. Marcus Lashley, a researcher in the MSU Deer Lab. Marcus will discuss a study he recently completed in North Carolina where coyotes were undoubtedly limiting the deer population by reducing fawn survival. He has some valuable information about habitat management to improve fawn survival. Also, he will tell the audience how to avoid an "ecological trap" when improving fawning cover to reduce coyote impacts. Last but not least, wait until you hear how far a coyote can travel! then information WILL impact coyote trapping effectiveness.
