Abstrlct (Limit: 200 worm) A review and synthesis of existing information were used to develop a Habita t Suitabil t ty Index (HSI) model for the eastern wild turkey U~el eagris gallopavo sylvestris). The model consol idates habitat use information into a framework appropriate for field application, and is scaled to produce an index between 0.0 (unsuitable habitat) and 1.0 (optimum habitat). HSI models are designed to be used with Habitat Evaluation Procedures previously developed by the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service. IGl 17. Document Anllysi. I.
