This looks like an older post, have you had any luck? Try looking up local chapters for wildlife conservation groups like Mule Deer Foundation, Ducks Unlimited, or Wild Turkey Federation. These groups have a wealth of knowledge from things like population management and regulations to behavior and migration routes. Weather you're into waterfowl, small game, or something bigger like elk, bison, or bear, you'll be able to fine someone happy to share what they know. They are non-profits so there's usually fundraisers or some kind of annual banquet. Flyers are posted in places like gun ranges or fish & game offices. A more expensive route would be finding a hunting guide to take you somewhere. Guided hunts can run 2-3 or several thousand $$ depending on what you're looking for. Meals an lodging are usually a part of the gig. Its been mentioned here already but your local wildlife biologists at fish & game is a great place to start! It may take some time and that's okay. More often than not I come home empty handed.
