Default RE: Kansas turkeys! Where did they go?

i see no drop in the population in kansas. it must be only the spots you are seeing. the poaching is just too bad in kansas.

the poaching is a result of both not enough game wardens, and the fact that every single game wardens only watch public land. they only go out to public land for opening weekend of every season and sit there in a group to talk. i have never in my life seen them spread out to watch any problem areas like onaga.

infact, i caught 3 poachers this weekend. iidentified their vehicle attheir highschool yesterday. since i don't have enough solid proof to turn over, i will only be able to scare them with a phone call.
