As Thanksgiving approaches, many Utahns think about turkeys. After all, the tasty birds are served as holiday dishes throughout the land.
But those who love the outdoors also like to observe, listen to or hunt the wild turkeys that have slowly been introduced in the mountains and deserts throughout the state.
Where it was once difficult to see a turkey in the wild, they are more common now in Utah. Many who hike Zion National Park’s Riverwalk Trail, for example, see the birds in that canyon.
