	Description:		On Creature Comforts, Kevin Farrell is joined by Dr. Troy Majure, veterinarian at the Animal Medical Center in Jackson and Libby Hartfield retired director of the Mississippi Museum of Natural Science. An interesting distinction to be made about Mississippians’ relationships to wild turkeys is in the two different ways they’re viewed. The first, as a large game bird to be hunted. And second, as a beautiful animal to be observed by wildlife- and bird-watchers. Our guest for today is Adam Butler, Wild Turkey Coordinator for the MS Department of Wildlife Fisheries and Parks. He’s here to inform us about both relationships we have with these fascinating, free-flying fowls. Email the show: animals@mpbonline.org. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
