What is wild animals turkey?

Wild turkeys are found throughout North America, Mexico, and parts of Central America. They are the largest game bird in North America and have a distinctive appearance with their long, thin legs, fan-shaped tail, and a bare, red head. Wild turkeys can weigh upwards of 20 pounds and have a wingspan of up to 5 feet.

Turkeys are omnivores and eat a variety of foods including acorns, seeds, insects, and small animals. They are ground-dwellers and are known for their running ability, but they can also fly short distances. Wild turkeys are social animals and live in flocks ranging from 5 to 50 birds.

Male turkeys, called toms, are known for their gobble call, which they use to attract females during mating season. Females, called hens, lay around 10-12 eggs per clutch and incubate them for 28 days. After hatching, the chicks stay with their mother for up to a year before striking out on their own.

Wild turkeys were once hunted to near-extinction in the early 1900s, but conservation efforts have helped to bring populations back up. Today, they are a popular game bird and an important part of many holiday meals.
