R. Wayne Bailey, Legendary Wild Turkey Biologist
Near the end of a life well lived, R. Wayne Bailey was often referenced as “the godfather of modern wild turkey management” and/or “the dean of turkey hunters.”
Outdoors people across the world are aspiring to become conservationists, satisfied more by creating and providing habitat for wildlife than hunting. The harvest of wildlife is and always will be a highlight, but it’s more a part of the whole.
