We have them in Minnesota but they never attack us. I wonder why?

Wild turkey attacks leave neighbors concerned in Janesville

Wild turkeys are attacking people in a Janesville neighborhood, chasing postal workers, blocking traffic and even going after children.

@funhouseradio I once had a semi-wild turkey on a 16th century farm recreation come after me. My wife pushed me to get it to move so she could see the pig. I kept walking until a re-enactor intervened and saved my bacon. Much larger than the gobblers in this photo.

@funhouseradio Lol, more power to the turkeys. They're social animals. They can be intimidating, but it's not like they're going to viciously attack someone.

@funhouseradio

outside of town, they'd just be killed and eaten. ask a farmer what to do.

@m3t00
They are legal to kill and eat even within the city limits. You have to get them without guns though.
