You get a dislike for that - eat farmed turkeys that are bred for eating surely.. Why shoot something that has escaped that fate of being farmed.. (I mean a lion hunts by the rules of nature - we just make our own rules and that looks rather sht as we progress to elimate everything around us)
Excuse me?
@@RoskinGreenrake I agree
@@RoskinGreenrake why killing animals at all when God gave us enough vegetables and fruits to eat and thrive?
@@Yoggoth amen brother
I've seen a group of Turkeys drive off a pair of coyotes! Here in Western New York they can survive our cold snowy winters better then Ring Necked Pheasants, that were supposed to replace the turkeys. Today the pheasants are gone and in their place wild turkeys are back. They eat a lot of insects that farmers hate like grasshoppers and beetles, plus wild berries and nuts. Being able to roost in trees is safer then staying on the ground like pheasants do, plus they can get into brush and trees for fruit and nuts still hanging in the winter. They only forage in grain fields after harvest so they are not considered a pest by farmers. All in all, a great bird to have around.
I'm a driver I see them out there all the time . lol
@@chosenpeople5881 Just don't try to hit one, they can weigh 25-35 pounds and can smash through a windshield! Trucks with flat windshields are especially vulnerable!
They do a lot of crop damage in the midwest, they are worst than deer because they stomp down the entire corn stalk and don't just feed on the corn while standing like deer do. I hunt on a farmer that hates the turkeys and wants them shot more than the deer
@@illinidave I've never seen a turkey tear down a corn stalk! Where I live it's raccoons who tear down corn stalks and take a few bites then move to the next I've never seen a turkey tear down a corn stalk! Turkeys, like Canadian Geese, visit corn fields after they have been harvested and eat what ever they find on the ground.
You definitely know that they are eating berries if you wake up in the morning and go to your car and see big purple and red poop stains on the hood of your hood and trunk of your car
I live in Minneapolis, Minnesota. I am lucky to see them in my backyard almost every day. At night its wondrous to see a whole flock roosting in the 🌲 trees. I think these big, beautiful birds are amazing creatures.
Good for you
Good for you... do you track 👣 in turkey shitt? Be careful with turkey turds all over your property, salmonella
I live in Peoria Illinois in city on dead end road lots of woods. We have every animal that has ever been in Illinois I swear. The turkeys seen in this video are definitely here, as 15 of them walked around our yard in the morning about 930 am the temperature was about 45 degrees. They are huge the Tom was there for sure definitely stands out amazing to see and good to them with the deer we have as well. Great video 👍
We have such "wild turkeys" in our apple tree meadow here in south germany since a few years. They are wunderful and the male Turkeys are also very "devoted mothers" to the chicks. They have a great family association!
@SalmonSlammin13 The line goes back to descendants of the American wild turkeys. A line that has been bred in Germany for years and that is now to be kept as close as possible to wild turkeys in future generations. The domesticated turkey breeds are not crossed. They are very resilient animals, able to fly, much less flesh than the next comparable breeding breed (bronze turkey)... Ours are quite tame, that's not always the case. Hope it was understandable. Greetings from southern Germany! 😃
Must See, " My Life As a Turkey" excellent video
We have a bunch in our neighborhood in northern illinois ❤️ love talking with them.
I love turkeys.
Well made video. Turkeys are beautiful, unique animals with amazing personalities and habits. People don't give them nearly enough credit. Though, to be fair, most people don't know squat about them.
Such a beautifull feathers.
They’re fast on their feet like lightning!
Thanks for the great info. Awesome!
Thanks for watching!
I love our local suburban South Jersey turkeys. They are recent visitors as we have lived in the same house since 1964. It's almost like watching dinosaurs roaming your yard.
They are like dinosaurs actually lol
@@canadaintheroughtv Technically, yes ^w^
Yes!! I live in New Hampshire and they just started showing up a few years ago. They're so ugly that they're cute. ❤️❤️
Great video, perhaps the flocking behaviour would be a good addition, flocked up in winter, breaking into sub groups or loners in the spring...?
Excellent video!!!!
Thank you
They look like beautiful looking birds in their wild form, just as pretty as pheasants l am only used to seeing them as farmed white Turkeys here in lreland.
This is awesome, they're everywhere here in New Brunswick now
Very informative.
here in NE West Va. we had 18 turkeys walk through the yard this week..all appeared to be hens..they snacked on some corn i had thrown out ;)
Fact: Wild Turkeys 🦃 taste great!!! I love Turkey nuggets...
I live in Delaware in the US and I saw three in my yard this week. It was my first time seeing some in my yard since I moved here four years ago. I didn't know they roosted in trees! I didn't know they took flight either! I better look up from time to time, when out in the yard.
there top speed flying is 55 mph and boy can they fly
Fact 6 : They taste amazing !!
Woww!! I had no idea they are so dimensional!
Good stuff 🍗🍗
While hiking out of the woods I was startled by a hen turkey flying off her nest only hidden by a limb from a small pine tree, she was sitting on 22 eggs . I even recounted not believing how many she had . She sat on a limb about 80 yards away watching till I was gone .
Lol. Turkeys are ground nesters.
I had no idea Turkey’s fly a wild one flew over my car on the highway I thought it was a flying dinosaur.
Delicious! YUMMY!
Because of the known value of the Wild Eastern Turkey as such the American Eastern Turkey has also been transplanted to parts of Europe.
We heard something banging on our sliding glass door downstairs. Went down to see what was going on and there was a wild turkey fighting its reflection. It was hilarious because it would walk up and peck the window, then jump because the reflection attacked at the same time.
That would be funny to see!
We have turkeys in our woods morning and evening and sometimes during the day. They roost in the oak trees and scratch at the ground near the bird feeders. We have seen them do some serious fighting-beak to beak while the others watched. I have a video
of it. They are very interesting to watch.
you're lucky to have them so close...like your very own documentary playing out before your eyes.
2:00 THAT POSITION THO🥲
哇哦 漂亮的 火鸡 我喜欢 😊
They can make a "barking" sound as well to call in their friends.
We can learn lessons from these hardy birds!
Aye. Push the little ones out of the way and gobble up the feed.
Here in Nigeria. Have 16 turkeys. Currently incubating 49 eggs, 18 just hatched. A female turkey lays an average of 14 eggs thrice a year. Beautiful and interesting birds. And good money too
That is awesome! Turkeys can only raise one clutch of young ones per year here in cold climates
Turkeys are cute :)
I have turkeys in my friends yard in Manchester NJ
Beautiful animals
👍
The Tom's also make a deep, bassy call. Like a 'click- voom- vooop" sound. This is repeated over and over at 2 to 3 second intervals.
Called a spit and drum, very cool to hear it in the wild.
@@canadaintheroughtv Spit and drum. Ok. Ya I've never heard it until today in my front yard. I live by a deciduous forest on a lake. Their gobbles are loud when they're that close haha.
this is the best turkey thing i've ever seen !
I almost hit a turkey on the road today now i'm watching this video. Great facts
It's okay, they are now over populated with no predators. It's okay if you mow em down. There annoying, like Canadian geese.. just turd droppers destroying ponds
They’re beautiful
I love them they are regal birds
They sure are
Years ago I saw a turkey hen chasing a juvenile fox LOL. They both emerged out of the brush with the hen screaming at the fox which looked to be not quite full grown and like he had enough of the hen. My guess is that he tried to raid mama turkey's nest and she was having none of it, LOL. This was on the wooded side of a service road right next to I270 in Maryland.
That would have been something to see! We once filmed a flock of adult turkeys gang up on a coyote that was trying to sneak up on them, they managed to scare him away too.
@@canadaintheroughtv Decades ago me and a friend went back in the woods near our neighborhood to build a fire on a chilly Fall night. After we got the fire going, we could hear a critter walking through the leaves, circling out camp. Out of the shadows came a juvenile fox right into the fire light and calmly settled down in front of the fire. He hung out with us for 5 minutes, LOL. We were dumbfounded and didn't say a word. He would look at us, look at the fire, look at us - it was AMAZING. We just hung out with the fox until he got bored, calmly got up and calmly walked off. I've also seen juvenile foxes chilling out with fawns, laying on the ground right next to each other just hanging out. Wildlife is really amazing like that...
@@GTX1123 those experiences really are special and they epitomize what enjoying the greatness of Canada is all about. Thanks for sharing!
@@canadaintheroughtv I live in Maryland in the U.S. but when I was 5 yrs old I lived in Newfoundland (my Dad was in the US Navy) and yes I do have some memories of Canada. The summer there was like Spring or Fall here - beautiful sunny days in the 70's, low humidity always with a breeze.
@@GTX1123 Wow! It really is.
Interesting fact.... THEY'RE DELICIOUS!!!
Very informative video! I wonder why the males and females segregate themselves into separate groups.I've never seen a mixed group, only rarely in mating season.The hens usually seem unimpressed with the suitors, and they really go all out to display what they've got.😂
They typically mix where we live pretty much all year long. But yes the boys sure do put on a display to impress the girls.
@@canadaintheroughtv I live in eastern Massachusetts.I usually see them in segregated groups here.I,'
ya ive raised eastern wild turkeys for years their a net bird
These turkeys visit my yard and they are beautiful.
I saw a turkey in my backyard, which was crazy to me because my fence gate has been closed for a few days now. She was so cute, and it’s been a minute sense I’ve mowed so she probably liked the long grass 🦃
The feathers offer quite a bit of protection!
Yes they do!
Hens will gobble, too.
DCFunBud I’ve been an avid turkey hunter ever since I was a small child going with my father. Never in my years of hunting have I ever heard anything other than Jakes and Toms gobble. So it’s 100% safe to say hens cannot gobble and my apologies but you’re dumb if you think this.
@@abushninja7246 I have turkeys parading in my backyard every day. Hens will gobble. I have personally witnessed this.
There are actually three extant species of turkey, the Ocellated Turkey (Agriocharis Ocellata), the American Turkey (Meleagris Intermedia), and the Mexican Turkey (Meleagris Gallopavo), a turkey is any gamebird of the subfamily Meleagridinae, within the family Tetraonidae.
❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
4:16 did anyone notice the double bearded jake
Good eye
Turkey flying
Show us about their ability to fly, please
Fact. #6. Turkey hens are the most devoted mothers.Once I took away all of her babies away .She didn't see them for a whole month and when I put them back with her she accepted them again and cared for them.
What the hell?
My neighbor planted a bunch of grass seed once to grow a new lawn and then the next morning a flock of these came and ate it all lol
Oh no lol
Tough, smart birds. They will spot you a mile away. Only time u can trick them is during mating season.
Turkey are great for pets
THEY ALSO FEAR HEAD BUSSAS IN THE SPRING TIME!!!!!
Im in west Michigan, lower peninsula, middle of the hand area😉and i have about 25 to thirty of these eastern wild turkeys in yard daily and the fights the males get into are really brutal….i mean bloody brutal……they will see their reflection in my basement windows and peck so hard at that other😆male Ive thought they would break it…but they are anderson windows so they are very strong but ive had to go and tell them to stop it several times….they are so spectacular when displaying its just really cool but they will poop like a small dog but runny so watch were u walk in my manicured lawn….I can see where these guys could be a pain as well…like geese on a golf course for instance
I been seeing them right in my backyard
Yes how long do they live?
In the wild they average 3-4 years.
People with their nose outside a protective mask during a pandemic are known as "turkey nosed".
people who believe mask work are known as nonthinker.
@@marywheatley6667 - I don't have to believe. I can test which mask block with things, which mask filter other things to trivial exposure levels. I can put a live Virus culture in a container sealed with filter material and see if it escapes or how fast it does; then compare that to no covering.
I can review the history of mask type adoption and changes in contagion rates over time. Like when doictors started wearing mask and washing hands between doing autopseys and performing child birth, mother & infant mortality dropped massively.
The non thinker is the one who just buys into Conspiracy hype and sensationalism to be in a special club of SPECIAL people with a secret.
You are just full of sour grapes because you are not smart enough to know things, too lazy to do testing, and far too submissive to authority to do anything beside take the word of the scamming narcissist that will let you be in their cult of personality as a worshipper, you feed their ego with obedience as cannon fodder and you get to feel special with a head full of lies.
I bet you think body armor is a scam too because it doesn't stop a Barret or AP round.
That Winter jacket must also be a scam because people who froze to death have been found wearing them
Oh and those radiation suits must be a scam too because some people have gotten lethal doses while wearing one.
Ya, you do sound crazy saying such things without qualification.
Good luck with those pain pills, Ivermectin, and anti-biotics... well not really. But just in case you chose to wise up and join the human race.
I can be excited for thanksgiving hunting turkeys and forget I don’t even eat meat anymore🤭🤣what a wasted kill lol
You could always go hunting and donate the meat to someone.
Turkeys use their spurs to fight. - Luke, 8 years old
They. Can. Fly
How it’s possible to eating them? So magnificent creature
Turkey meat is delicious and they are extremely abundant
Wowww.... Sangat indah sekali bulu bulu kalkun .habitat terjaga dengan baik .respect sekali dengan pemeliharaan alam nya .👍👍👍👍✌️✌️✌️😊😊😊🇮🇩🇮🇩🇮🇩🇮🇩
Here in South California..we have free range turkeys because they eat Snakes
I have a question! Is it easy to raise Turkeys? Do they have many diseases just like normal chickens?
Not sure.
what do they eat in the winter
They scratch through the snow to eat spilt grains and grasses mainly.
Hens don’t get together with their poult’s until they can fly
Im a Turkey.
They are tuff to hunt.
Not really you just have to be quiet and not move much and wear camouflage
@@nikmiller3814 the eastern bird is hard sometime on my end mainly if they are henned up.
Actually you gotta move alot during the spring. At least I do. If you have alot a land that is. Very tiredsum, but worth the pay off.
Jadon 270 I do sometimes, but if they aren’t gobbling then you maybe calling and they hear you and follow you everywhere you go if you only hang around for a short spell.
Running and gunning is great to a point I like to sit and call for a couple of hours just to see what comes in, if nothing then I move and try again. I learned since 2013, patiences kills turkeys more consistently.
The Ice man Series what does wild turkey taste like? Is it strong and gamely?
IMAGINE the dinosaurs with similar faces
they say that vulture's are the only bird that are bald. but theres another bird called a turkey
Bald eagle...
What about the ibis?
@@marcusallen2485 Bald Eagles aren't bald.
Another fact is they taste good
They sure do! We have some great turkey Rough cooking recipe videos here th-cam.com/play/PLEjgR6KhnHHDI2qXYlTxdB0JglULfRG5l.html
Is someone also here because of that crazy Rick and Morty episode?
Here in Connecticut they are a common sight and then you hear the complaints from those who have had their bird feeders torn apart. LMAO 😂
Its not a flock! Everyone mistakes that..its technically a "Rafted" of turkey
Turkeys are googleing ?
THEY DO CHANGE COLOR IT'S CALLED IRIDESCENCE.
drumming
Is it true that Turkeys are the closest living thing to the Terror Birds!!💪🦃
Thanks for watching!
Turkey hunting begins this week!!!
I remember going to the Azores in the mid 80's. I was chased by a domestic [farm] turkey.. I was a boy and horrified... this was a giant domestic tom
Fly you forgot to mention that they can fly
🇹🇷🇹🇷🇹🇷🇹🇷
tennesee turkeys
Can we eat wild turkeys?
Absolutely.
This summer I got my grandkids each a turkey they were supposed to be times Delbert in Dwayne we named them turns out Delbert is a female I know nothing about when they mate I know nothing about how big of a place they need for the winner how can I find out..Help All day day Rome around the yard and at night I put them underneath my five-year-old granddaughters slide and put a fencing around it but I am worried that some predator will get them at night
Another fact you forgot to mention. Wild eastern Turkey tastes great!
It would not get many likes from the people watching because they legitimately like turkeys, not just exploiting them for their bodies. It's nice that the information was presented respectfully. If he went on to talk about killing them, well, not many wildlife enthusiasts or turkey caretakers would be inclined to like or share it.
Wow.... and someone would kill that....
😂
They’re delicious 😋
TOM PIPPS FOAM- BATON ROUGE LOUISIANA USA HI HELLO &
