West Virginia's spring gobbler season fell a little short of predictions as wet weather kept hunters out of the woods.
The WV-DNR predicted more than 10,000 gobblers would be killed during the month long season.
hunters killed 9,485 birds, or about 4 percent below the 2008 spring kill.
DNR official Curtis Taylor said this year's spring season was hampered by several days of rain, which also kept gobblers from moving about.
