Who wanted to make a turkey the national bird of the United States?
Ben Franklin wanted to make the turkey the national bird, believing that the turkey would be a better national symbol than the bald eagle, who was often seen feeding on carrion, and was therefore, in Franklin's opinion, little better than a vulture. Many people mistakenly refer to Mr. Franklin as a president, he was however never president. He was however a great inventor and founding father.
