Wild Turkey. The wild turkey is peculiar to America, supreme in the class of
game birds and a symbol of the environments and association of our pioneer
ancestors, who subdued the wilderness. It is progenitor of the domestic turkey,
s super product of poultry breeding today, and emblematic of all American
institutions.
