This website is part of a course requirement I had to do for my Organismal Biology class at the University of Wisconsin-La Crosse.  Every student in this class was required to make a website on any organism of their choice.  If you would like to view other organisms and other webpages of students you can visit MultipleOrganisms.net. My website is entirely devoted to the North American Wild Turkey (Meleagris gallopavo).  In the following website you will find a plethora of information about the wild turkey including its phylogeny, habitat, adaptations, nutrition, reproduction, interactions with other species, and much much more!!
