DEM Launches 2024 Wild Turkey Brood Survey: Public Participation Needed

The Rhode Island DEM invites residents to contribute to the Wild Turkey Brood Survey by reporting turkey sightings from July 1 to August 31. Observations, including hens with or without poults and males, help monitor the state’s turkey population.

Reports can be submitted via Survey123, an online survey platform. The Survey123 app can be downloaded on smartphones for recording observations on the go or filled out on a computer. For those without computer or smartphone access, observations can be noted on a datasheet provided by DFW and returned by September 15.

To report observations via Survey123, use the link here (app download required for smartphone users). The survey will be available starting July 1.
