Department of Natural Resources officials relocate about 120 wild turkeys this winter across southern Wisconsin to ease crop damage and expand flocks. Wildlife biologist Tom Howard says birds already gathered in Iowa and Grant counties are being trap moved from dense groups using rocket nets, then released in units of hens and gobblers to boost populations in Kettle Moraine State Forest Lafayette County and Dane County areas.
