A Breed Lost: The Chairman of the UK Turkey Club Reports That the Nebraskan Turkey Is Now Believed To Be Extinct

The Nebraskan turkey, a fascinating breed with a 76-year history , is now believed to be extinct, according to the Chairman of the UK Turkey Club. This marks a sad and disappointing loss for the world of farming and animal conservation. Despite efforts to preserve this rare breed, it has now been lost to history. It serves as a sobering reminder of the importance of preserving endangered species and the urgent need for action to prevent the loss of other breeds.

The British Breeds Revival Trust (BBRT) is just one organization dedicated to the conservation and revival of native farm breeds, including turkeys. By supporting the work of organizations like the BBRT, we can help to prevent the loss of other rare and endangered breeds, and ensure that future generations have the opportunity to appreciate and benefit from their unique qualities.
