Unit 37 spans seven counties in southeastern North Dakota and is characterized by a mix of gently rolling hills, flat prairies, and fertile river valleys, offering diverse habitats for wildlife, including wild turkeys. These counties are largely dominated by the expansive Red River Valley and its tributaries, with the James River running through several of them, creating riparian corridors of trees and shrubs that provide essential cover for nesting and roosting. The open grasslands and croplands found throughout the region offer abundant food sources, including seeds, berries, and insects, which are crucial for wild turkey populations. While much of the land is agricultural, the presence of wooded draws, creek beds, and small wetlands in these counties provides ideal shelter and protection for turkeys. The combination of river valleys, grasslands, and scattered woodlands supports a growing population of wild turkeys, especially in areas where these habitats intersect. Overall, the diverse terrain in these counties offers a balanced environment for wild turkey habitat, with ample foraging opportunities and sufficient cover for nesting and roosting.
