Wild turkeys eat mostly plant material, along with insects, crabs, snakes, and frogs, and their range extends across the continental U.S., Canada, and Mexico. During the early 1900s the wild turkey population declined significantly due to hunting and habitat loss. After a series of reintroduction programs, the programs, the population has almost reached pre-colonial levels. While wild turkeys can fly, they can also run up to 12 mph and often choose running over flying to escape.
