This week we're joined by Dr. Brad Cohen of Tennessee Tech and the Cohen Lab. We discuss hunting pressure, gobbling activity and what they have learned through research and monitoring GPS banded gobblers and hunters. Brad participates in many research projects along with Drs. Mike Chamberlain and Bret Collier, and like them, he's an avid turkey hunter and has really paid attention to the findings. We also talk turkey season dates and the thoughts so far on their effectiveness. Ever wondered how they count  birds and establish limits? We touch on that. We also talk about avian predators having an effect on our turkeys. We think it's a real thing. It's an interesting discussion and one anyone interested in turkeys will appreciate.

Matt Harrison is joined by renowned wild turkey scientist Dr. Mike Chamberlain (@wildturkeydoc) and Dr. Mike Brasher to announce wildturkeyDNA, a new partnership that will enlist hunters in the study of wild turkey genetics. Building from the success of duckDNA, this exciting project brings together DU, Wild Turkey Lab, National Wild Turkey Federation, Low Country Game Bird Foundation, and the University of Texas at El Paso around a shared interest in science to inform conservation. Year 1 will focus on collecting tissue from harvested turkeys having unique or odd plumages to understand the origin of these beautiful birds. Are they color morphs of wild turkeys or do they originate from heritage breeds? Tune in to hear how you can participate and learn about additional questions that will be answered in future years. Visit www.wildturkeyDNA.com and follow the team on Instagram and Facebook (@wildturkeydna) for updates and announcements.Listen now: www.ducks.org/DUPodcastSend feedback: DUPodcast@ducks.org

In this episode, the NWTF's Paul Campbell sits down with renowned wild turkey biologist Dr. Mike Chamberlain to dive deep into one of the most fascinating developments in modern turkey research — the wildturkeyDNA project. They explore how a casual Super Bowl Sunday conversation sparked a groundbreaking initiative to uncover the origins of odd plumage in wild turkeys and what it could mean for conservation. Dr. Chamberlain breaks down how turkey hunters can contribute to this innovative study, what the team hopes to learn about color variations, hybridization and genetic diversity, and why these findings could help shape the future of wild turkey populations across North America. The two also share some entertaining hunting stories, discuss the influence of legendary biologist Lovett Williams, and talk about the launch of the new 'Spurred' video series coming from Wild Turkey Lab. If you've ever seen a turkey that looked just a little "off," this episode will have you rethinking what might really be behind those feathers. And if you're a turkey hunter, this is your chance to be part of the science. Learn more or get involved: wildturkeyDNA.com  Follow on Instagram: @WildTurkeyDNA

This week's podcast can only be described as a deep discussion with Dr. Mike Chamberlain aka @wildturkeydoc on some thought provoking issues. We discuss social dominance issues, the latest research that is trying to understand a gobbler's personalities  (whether they are home boys or risk takers), and how that affects their mortality.  It gets deep when we talk conceptually about killing the risk-taking turkeys, and how we may end up with turkeys that behave in ways that make them more difficult to hunt. Speaking of bad behavior, we ask about tree hopping turkeys and gain some insight. Finally, Mike shares the story of his hunt with us last year and what went wrong. We can all learn from this.

The guys anxiously discuss the upcoming turkey season, the many factors that are against wild turkeys every year, what's possibly behind the sharp decline in turkey numbers in some states like Kansas and Oklahoma, hunting pressure and birds, and how likely is it that gobbler you missed last year is there again this year.

This week we are joined by one of our favorite guests, Dr. Mike Chamberlain of UGA to talk about his latest study regarding gobbler harvest. Mike has been managing a study of the largest group of radio collared gobblers ever for a scientific study. Mike carefully explains the data so that even Dudley can understand it.  If you're concerned about turkeys and considering adjusting harvest totals on a struggling property, you need to listen to this one.  We also have a great conversation about judging old run down bucks and how they all can change appearances during the season. It's a great podcast.

This week on SouthBound, host Tommy Tomlinson talks to Mike Chamberlain, a researcher at the University of Georgia who is an expert on wild turkeys. They talk about the changing landscape for wild turkeys, and how different they are from the Butterballs we have at Thanksgiving.

With deer season now on the brain, we hit up one of our favorite mature buck nerds, Dr. Mike Chamberlain aka The Turkey Doc, for tips and tricks on improving the odds of harvesting mature bucks. Although Mike is widely known for his hands-on and scientific knowledge of all things Wild Turkey, he and his harem of hunting buddies and clients are luckier than most when it comes to actually harvesting the mature bucks they grow. One topic of discussion included tips for encouraging older bucks to set foot in food plots during daylight hours, including how they manage pressure and habitat in the vicinity to really set the scene. It's not a huge feat anymore to grow and hold mature bucks, but harvesting them on a consistent basis is exponentially more difficult – and they're doing it!

Mike Chamberlain's believable tone and unhurried pace make him a great choice to narrate this audiobook subtitled “Climate and the Science of Denial.” Host Jo Reed and AudioFile's Alan Minskoff discuss this story examining facts versus falsehoods, and the climate-change deniers. These are the folks who still pit themselves against the scientists revealing unyielding truths of melting glaciers, warming temperatures, and catastrophic weather events. Chamberlain's careful narration of Lipsky's punchy prose makes this enjoyable, informative listening despite the dire nature of the topic.

The turkey hunters of America need a biology lesson. There are so many things we don't fully understand. Like why exactly do toms gobble at owls? Does the camo pattern we wear even matter? And what about the bigger questions: Why are wild turkey populations seemingly declining in so many places? What should game agencies and hunters do about it? We sit down with Dr. Mike Chamberlain, a professor at the University of Georgia who has been researching (and hunting) wild turkeys for the past 30 years.

If you haven't been already, we're thrilled to introduce you to Dr. Mike Chamberlain. Somehow, over our years of making this show, we weren't aware of this man or his incredible work on turkeys. Now we feel like we've been stumbling around in the dark. Ok, that's probably an overstatement, since we've had some great mentors, and we've had several excellent and very informed turkey hunters and biologists on the show over the years. But Mike seems to possess a meta-knowledge of these birds, seamlessly combining the science of their biology and ecology with the experience of a seasoned hunter.   As a relatively new hunter himself, one who grew up with little of the ecological knowledge needed to be successful in the pursuit, Daniel has relied heavily on his adult learning skills, and that's included finding mentors that can accelerate his learning curve. He started out in his mid-30s, which means he didn't get those crucial couple of decades of watching, listening, learning, and making mistakes. At his age, being successful early on was pretty important if he was going to stick with it and feed himself off the landscape. Without that early life on-ramp to guide him through the typical hunter's journey, he's had to rely on friends, books, videos, podcasts, and of course, many mistakes in the field as his main educational inputs. It's also meant getting occasionally waylaid by the “hunter science”. You know — those often repeated but ill-informed tropes that stick around in hunting camps, subtly leading us astray and speaking to the disconnect that often exists between the work of field biologists and the hunters that pursue the quarry. If he had known about Mike's work several years ago he would have relied heavily on it to inform his knowledge of the species and his hunting strategies. Our goal with making the WildFed Podcast has been to curate voices from the world of hunting, fishing, foraging and wild foods cooking, in order to make the road a little easier and the education more concise for those who — like Daniel — are embarking on this journey later in life or in a non-traditional way. So, in that sense, Mike represents just the kind of guest we're looking for. Someone who can rapidly accelerate what you understand about a specific species to make up for the lack of ecological, place-based knowledge many of us suffer from as a result of being raised in a nature-divorced culture. We need Mike Chamberlains for every species — folks that can guide our learning, distilling the scientific knowledge into simple to absorb, useful lessons that help to deepen our connection to our wildlife neighbors. So if you love wild turkeys, and particularly if you love — or hope to love — hunting them, here is an authoritative voice on the topic. Just talking to him has us very excited about next spring!

Late Season Turkey Hunting Tactics with Mike Chamberlain This week, Mike Chamberlain joins Cameron and Andy to discuss late season turkey hunting tactics. Most of you know that Mike is a wild turkey biologist with the University of Georgia, and his students are spearheading quite a few studies on wild turkeys. In addition to his full time job of managing his students and grad students, Mike is a turkey hunter. Most of the podcasts and seminars Mike has been on are purely about the biology of the wild turkey, but this week Mike joins the show to discuss some tactics he uses to hunt wild turkeys during the late season. Mike's vast knowledge of the bird itself gives him a different take on hunting turkeys during the early, mid, and late parts of the season. Mike definitely does not disappoint during this interview where he drops a couple of tidbits of information that will make us all a little more successful during what can be a tough time of year to kill turkeys. Listen in!

Mike Chamberlain has forgotten more about wild turkeys than many will ever know.  Chamberlain leads the University of Georgia's Wild Turkey Lab. Since writing his dissertation on turkeys and predation, Chamberlain has studied the birds for almost 30 years. What he has learned about turkeys has made him a better hunter, and we are hoping it can help you, too. In this episode Mike and I discuss; toms eventually coming back to where they heard a call, how to use the characteristics of different subspecies to your advantage, the process of nesting and how the flock changes throughout the spring.     Connect with Jason and Phelps Phelps on Instagram, Facebook, and Youtube Shop Phelps Merch See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

On this episode, we're contrasting two eras of turkey hunting with Will Primos and Dr. Mike Chamberlain of the University of Georgia. Turkey populations peaked in modern times in the late 1990s, and with it, the innovation of call makers and outdoor media groups skyrocketed, forging the turkey hunting culture of the nation. Mr. Will Primos stood on the forefront of that innovation and he taught us how to call and hunt. However, recent decades have yielded dramatically decreasing turkey populations in much of the Southeastern United States. Dr. Chamberlain will detail the five biggest culprits of the decline and make some projections for the future.
