Abstract: The association of male and female Rio Grande wild turkeys to roads according to season and time of day is quantified and the potential biases of using roads as transects for distance sampling is examined. The research is conducted in order to help develop appropriate protocols for distance sampling of Rio Grande wild turkeys from roads.
