Turkey Trivia
Ben Franklin thought that the turkey should have been our
national bird instead of the eagle.
There is fossil evidence that turkeys have been around
the Americas for 10 million years!
Some people think the turkey got its name from the Indian
word for the bird--"furkee".
Other people think its name came from the sound that the
bird makes--"turk, turk."
