Ever wonder how big conservation initiatives get hatched? Well, turkeys lay them.
Our fearless conservation leaders organize and re-organize, plan and re-plan, strategize and re-strategize, and think and (well, okay, maybe they don't think) until they are blue in the face and their staff are disillusioned and disgusted. Staff get shuffled and reshuffled more than a deck of cards in a tribal casino. Fearless leader grandiose ideas usually lack context, connection to current field work, and recognition of the gravity and long-term commitments needed to pull their ideas off. They are out of touch turkeys.
Solution? Go turkey hunting, or set up a staff-level advisory committee that has veto power over turkey eggs.
