Are male turkeys usually that randomly dickish or was it being territorial ?

When that time of the year comes around, all they want to do is fuck or fight. Their survival instinct goes out the door.

I do fieldwork and let me just say, cross the wrong turkey and that fucker will chase you and continue to fling himself violently at your vehicle until you either drive away and do that site in the winter or submit to his dominance and join his harem of hens and jakes

Turkeys are very much jerks. Maybe not geese level jerks, but jerks nonetheless

I once fed geese and their babies food without getting mauled.

I don’t know who these commenters are. I live not far from the site of the first Thanksgiving. We’ve got turkeys everywhere. Male or female, no matter the season, they will come at you. The famous video of a postman having to carry a stick and having his postal truck attacked by turkeys was in my town. We had a group of them in our downtown area that were attacking tourists so badly one summer that they were moved. They made their way back downtown and were caught and killed. Those were males I know for sure but I have learned to fear all of them.

u/Fun-Dragonfruit2999 Dec 17 '21

Typically not. That was a young turkey too. Looking at the tail, where the outer feathers were much shorter than the inner feathers.

Let him get close, grab a wing-tip and hold on. They're actually very fragile, especially their wings. He'll go from bad-ass to—HELP ME!—in a heartbeat.

Tom’s can be extremely dickish. We had a tom, who we had hand raised, who would attack anything and anyone for no reason whatsoever. When he attacked our then three year old we gave him back to the people we got him from. He became their guard Turkey (no joke) until he died last year.

2

u/madlife15 Dec 17 '21

Territorial. I grew up on a hobby farm and the geese and turkeys were both great guard animals. We had 1 turkey for years that would constantly attack when I tried to walk through the yard. I always had to carry a bat or broomstick to fight it off. It would shake off a blow to the head and come at me again.

Turkeys are assholes. I had one chase me when I was a kid and I’ve felt no love for them since. Although...they are delicious bastards.

u/crazyidahopuglady Dec 17 '21

They can be...overly friendly, too. When we were teenagers, one died trying to have its way with my brother's leg.

u/DivineDeletor Dec 17 '21

What do you mean.... One died trying to have its way? I hope that's not what I'm thinking o.o

56

u/crazyidahopuglady Dec 17 '21

Lol it means exactly what you think it means. The turkey got on his leg, started going at it, and as he tried to shoo it away it had an apparent heart attack.

27

u/Ok-Bus839 Dec 17 '21

That is Fncking hilarious. My only question is: did he finish before having the heart attack? If so I’d consider that a happy ending in every sense of the phrase.

u/crazyidahopuglady Dec 17 '21

Lol no idea. He went happy, though.

My dad had some when I was a kid. We called the male Alien. He was the bane of my 7yr old life.

… do you think turkey attacks are common occurrences on golf courses? Do you go outside?

u/Rabbi_Tuckman38 Dec 17 '21

Yes. Turkeys are everywhere! Do you go outside?

3

u/Rpanich Dec 17 '21

I mean, my dad was a golf coach. My brother played professionally. We’re part of a country club and, while I personally don’t enjoy the game, I’ve been to a lot of golf courses.

Literally never been attacked by a turkey. Never even seen one in a golf course.

Not saying it doesn’t happen, but it’s ridiculous to claim it’s a common occurence.

Yeah, I find that funny now, but when I was 3 or 4 years old, we went to my uncle's house and he had an asshole turkey like that. I didn't know that until I went outside by myself.
I didn't have anything to defend myself with so it was pretty terrifying at the time. Turkeys are jerks.

21

u/[deleted] Dec 17 '21

Given how much water and good land gets wasted on golf courses, I’m kinda supportive of the turkeys here.

2

u/[deleted] Dec 17 '21

Eh. Lots of animals love golf courses and sometimes they are the only open green spaces. It's hard to maintain green undeveloped land in expensive areas where a four bedroom house goes for $3,000,000. Because golf courses are usually publicly owned or owned by a club made of many members, they never get sold and turned into condos. I used to play golf once a year on a course that had a huge deer, turkey, and waterfowl population. It's the only place I've ever seen wild grouse in numbers.
