If you know the answer to that question, please don\u2019t spoil it for the rest of the listeners. Turkeys, like deer, elk, and most other wildlife have a defined mating season at the same time each year. Actually, the only animals I could find that don\u2019t have a mating season are the Golden Spiny Mouse, the Tree Kangaroo, the Musk Shrew, the Long-Thumbed Frog, and a short list of others. Today, Jason Lupardus, CEO of Turkeys for Tomorrow, tells us how turkeys time their mating season so accurately, what changes in their behavior, and why some turkeys start their struts early.<\/p>\n<p>Listen on <a href=\"https:\/\/open.spotify.com\/episode\/0spwOQuvzEONESYOkrYZK3?si=53a5b150d438441e\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Spotify,<\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/podcasts.apple.com\/us\/podcast\/what-is-photoperiod-and-what-does-it-have-to-do-with-turkeys\/id1618319035?i=1000667538297\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Apple Podcasts,<\/a> or <a href=\"https:\/\/music.amazon.com\/podcasts\/42b2d90c-d2b8-4233-bb83-a8df55111b31\/episodes\/530ac8b9-50e9-4af1-87c7-c6760e1ffeb6\/the-national-land-podcast-what-is-photoperiod-and-what-does-it-have-to-do-with-turkeys\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Amazon!<\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/turkeysfortomorrow.org\/\">Join Turkeys for Tomorrow<\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/nationalland.com\">Buy, Sell, Lease, or Auction Land<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>How do turkeys know when mating season starts?
