Wild turkeys fly very short distances, kinda like a jump on the moon. They freak out and sling feathers everywhere, travel in groups, and collectively make a fuck-ton of noise.
I’m pretty sure we started eating them just to shut them the fuck up.

Wow, they really are the perfect mascot for the US
Benjamin Franklin thought so too.

Nah, bald eagles are thieves & bullies.
We started eating them because they are delicious.
Turkey tastes like packing material. We started eating them because we were starving in the wilderness.
Maybe not far, but they can. I’ve seen a pack? Gaggle? Fly over a fence. I’ve seen one fly up into a tree as well
Source: there’s turkeys all over my city
Wild turkeys can fly short distances. Domesticated turkeys can't because they've been bred to have huge breasts
Hubba hubba
I have huge breasts, Greg. Could you breed me?
Like big ol bags of sand.
breasts
They can fly, but more so to get up in a tree than to go somewhere. Source is that I used to have turkeys until some stray dogs killed them all.
They will definitely fly to get away. They can fly 50 mph, which is crazy for a 30 lb bird.
Yeah I meant like they're not gonna fly long distances
They're plummetting to earth like sacks of wet cement!
Turkeys can fly! Up to 50 mph!
Frozen ones though?
If you throw em hard enough
I'm even in Cincinnati!

A lot of people in this thread claiming that turkeys can fly, are not realizing that in context of this meme the turkeys were tossed from a helicopter. Makes a difference.
Also they were the over fed industrial farmed ones
I was blown away when I first saw a wild chicken fly. I always thought they were flightless because I had only seen domesticated chickens up to that point.
Wild turkeys can also fly, and those things are all over Mariposa.
