I gotta side with Elk. The Tom's on my college campus learned that people equal food and were not afraid of people. The hens were a bit more wary, as always, but if I didn't know the damage the beaks, wings and feet could do to a person, I probably could have pounced on many during my school daysI find it hard to believe that laws are the only thing stopping people from harvesting wild turkeys with there bare hands, but, you are the expert.
