Wildcrete 3D Target – Turkey

The turkey is a large bird in the genus Meleagris, native to North America.

There are two extant turkey species: the wild turkey of eastern and central North America and the ocellated turkey of the Peninsula in Mexico.

Males of both turkey species have a distinctive fleshy wattle, called a snood, that hangs from the top of the beak.

They are among the largest birds in their ranges.

As with many large ground-feeding birds, the male is bigger and much more colorful than the female.

The earliest turkeys evolved in North America over 20 million years ago and they share a recent common ancestor with grouse, pheasants, and other fowl.

The wild turkey species is the ancestor of the domestic turkey, which was domesticated approximately 2,000 years ago.
