Marty Stouffer's Wild America
Marty Stouffer's Wild America was the first wildlife and nature series to focus exclusivvely on the wild animals and wild lands of North America.


By viewer request, we look at a Bird whose story is woven into our culture. Yet this creature, the Pilgrim's choice for the first Thanksgiving meal, soon became a rarity. Our largest gamebird, with its flamboyant courtship, is a strong flier that prefers to run. We meet the shy Gobblers of our eastern woodlands and their lanky western kin -- forebearers of all domestically raised stock.
