Wild Turkey Breaks In and Out of HomeAn Ohio family got a bit of a scare when a wild turkey broke into their home. The trespasser violently smashed through the window causing glass to fly everywhere. Police were quickly dispatched to the house to help remove the large bird from the property.In video footage, posted by the local police department on Twitter, the entire fowl encounter can be seen. A wild turkey runs amongst a field of broken glass. Police attempt to apprehend the bird with a large net. They actually catch the bird for a brief moment. The large bird, however, manages to break free and out of premises at the last minute. This was clearly an unusual case of breaking and entering and exiting.    (Image Credit: Twitter)#turkey #homeinvasion

Wild Turkey Joined Army Funeral Procession at Arlington National CemeteryThe funeral procession at Arlington National Cemetery just added one unexpected guest. The surprise guest is a wild turkey that resides in the nearby wilderness. The Washington DC cemetery, where many service members and their families are buried, is surrounded by an area populated by wildlife. Chipmunks, squirrels, foxes and even deer have been spotted out and about before.This particular female turkey is more daring than most of her animal friends. She would come watch the funeral and sometimes tag along with the servicemen during the procession, as posted by Arlington National Cemetery's Facebook page.Though it may be a bit startling to spot a wild turkey, visitors to the military cemetery are urged to be mindful to animals that consider ANC's 639 acres their home.Image: U.S. Army photo / Ashley Wright / DPAA#turkey #ArlingtonNationalCemetery #funeralprocession #Army #WashingtonDC #cemetery

Pet Turkeys are More than they Bargained ForGlenn and Robin took in a couple of wild turkey eggs that survived and hatched, and now they have two pet turkeys. But it's not all love and kisses. Turkeys have a rather intrusive way of showing affection, which involves pecking. The couple has had little luck civilizing the turkeys that were eventually named No and Stop It. The names make sense, because that's what they were saying to the birds all the time anyway! Glenn is more likely to be assaulted by the turkeys, so he's tried all kinds of schemes to keep them at arms length, including wearing a hoop skirt.

Grocery Store Turkey Becomes a Beloved PetRosalva was picking up supplies as a hurricane was headed for Cozumel, Mexico. She noticed a turkey chick for sale, and worried that he could be hurt during the hurricane, so she bought him. Uri was supposed to be someone's dinner eventually, but Rose raised him as a pet. As a pampered pet, Uri's personality and preferences came out. The skin on his head even changes color to show his mood! Since he was bred to be eaten, and has lived far longer than planned, Uri has a few physical difficulties, but Rose is always there to make his life better. You can follow Uri at his Instagram page.#turkey #bird #petturkey

Clever Cat Cons People Into Buying Cat Food in Grocery StoreThis cat should be in Slytherin!A stray cat in Turkey has found a way to get food from strangers with just his patience. How? All this kitty does is sit in front of a supermarket shelf filled with cat food and wait for a kindhearted person to stop and buy some food for him.Ozan Goksu, an animal activist, was able to take footage of how the exchange goes! In the video, Goksu encountered the animal waiting in the cat food aisle. When he picked up a packet of cat food, the cat followed him through the checkout and outside the store, where he gave the cat its food.Goksu hopes to raise awareness about stray animals through the video and other footage uploaded on his social media accounts.image credit: @ozanngoksu/Zenger#Cats #Turkey #OzanGoksu #StrayCat
