Here is a good example of relocation efforts in North Carolina:

"The wild turkey population has increased from an estimated 2,000 birds in 1970 to an estimated 130,000 birds in 2000. Wild turkeys now exist in all 100 counties in the state and we have a spring gobbler season in 93 of those counties. The reported wild turkey harvest has increased from 144 birds in 1977, when mandatory reporting began, to 6,827 birds in 2000."
