Turkeys were never native to Eastern Oregon, yet today, they are numerous. They should be considered weeds just as leafy spurge and knapweeds are considered weeds. Turkeys may have needed help in their native habitats, but now they are, at least here, noxious and over running the native ecosystem. Just a different point of view.
