All animal-based foods contain some cholesterol, so yes, turkey has cholesterol. The amount is low compared to red meats, though, and depends on the cut; turkey white meat has less cholesterol than turkey dark meat. Since a substantial amount of the cholesterol is contained in the skin and any fatty tissues, the cholesterol you consume in turkey can be reduced if you remove the skin and fat before eating.
Dietary cholesterol can be absorbed by the body and utilized. The body's cholesterol production though is much higher than the general intake. If the absorbed amount of cholesterol increases, then the body's production decreases. Another "defense" which the body can use to avoid too much cholesterol in the system is to simply decrease the absorption of cholesterol.

Dark meat, (w/o skin) has 100mg cholesterol, about 33% daily rec. maximum.Eating the meat with the skin adds a trivial amount of cholesterol but adds a large amount of saturated fat, which has a much larger (negative) impact on heart health than cholesterol.
