When I was a small boy, on the farm, it was nothing to see several covey of quail, and other small game like rabbits were abundant.
Most of the farms around our 400 acres looks pretty much like they did 50 years ago as far as habitat.
The only difference being turkeys. Since their introduction to the area, we have lots of them, but I haven't seen a quail,or a rabbit, in years (enough to hunt anyway).
I know that turkeys will eat snakes and mice, but do you suppose they would eat enough quail eggs and young rabbits to destroy the population?
Has anyone else noticed a decrease in other game since turkeys were introduced to their areas?
