Wild Turkey Prints
Wild turkey prints or photo galleries can be viewed on the website of the breeder.
Birds of this breed are kept in captivity in the USA and many other countries. Only domestic varieties of these birds should be kept for meat and eggs; wild-caught birds are not adapted to captive lifestyle. If you find an orphaned baby, don’t take it home, but try to find the nest and put it in. The mother is probably near, but she is afraid. If the nest is not there, you can take it with you and contact your local wildlife rehabilitation personnel or the International Wildlife Rehabilitation Council. If there is no good alternative, you can raise the bird at home and then release it.

Wild Turkey Prints -
photo, breeder
These birds were unknown in Europe until the 16th century, but the Aztecs and the Mayans domesticated them long ago. Spanish Conquistadors had found the Aztecs raising these birds around their homes for meat, eggs and feathers. The Aztec emperor kept them in his zoo as food for the other animals. Many receipts with meat and eggs of these birds were developed in South America. Some of them are known as national Mexican food up to nowadays. These birds quickly became a popular fowl and a choice dish in most European countries. Christopher Columbus also saw these birds in America, but a few birds that he took to Europe could not establish a population.
