Supporting the designation of March 15, 2025, as "National Osceola Turkey Day".
HRES 215 is a symbolic resolution designating March 15, 2025, as "National Osceola Turkey Day." It directly honors the Osceola turkey subspecies, which is unique to peninsular Florida and considered challenging to hunt due to its habitat. The resolution highlights Florida's Wild Turkey Cost Share Program, which uses permit revenue for habitat conservation, and notes that Florida hunters contributed over $76 million annually to turkey management since 1985. It has no legal effect or funding changes - only encouraging public observance of the day. The resolution was introduced by Florida representatives and connects to Florida's spring turkey hunting season opening.
