ATTENTION SPRING TURKEY HUNTERS: The Conservation Education/Firearms Safety Program will be holding two Wild Turkey Hunting Safety Seminars where both experienced and first-time turkey hunters can prepare for the upcoming spring turkey season. Topics to be covered in the seminars include safe hunting practices; use of specialized equipment, calls, and decoys; site set-up; and other strategies for harvesting turkeys. A Wildlife Division biologist will present information about wild turkey biology, population trends, and management history in Connecticut. Participants will have an opportunity to pattern their shotguns for turkey hunting following classroom discussion. To do so, participants must bring the shotgun they intend to use for the spring turkey season, ammunition, a shotgun choke appropriate for turkey hunting, and eye and ear protection. REGISTRATION IS REQUIRED -- please call the Wildlife Division at 860-424-3015 or 860-424-3007 (Monday-Friday, from 8:30 AM-4:30 PM) to pre-register for one of these FREE seminars: Saturday, April 2, from 8:00 AM-2:00 PM, at the Fairfield County Fish and Game Protective Association, 310 Hammertown Road in Monroe. Sunday, April 24, from 8:30 AM-12:30 PM, at the DEEP Wildlife Division's Franklin Wildlife Management Area, 391 Route 32 in North Franklin
