I heard the Turkey is very intelligent and has very keen senses. Which is the reason it was nominated for the National bird and which makes this bird difficult to hunt. But during mating season the male turkey loses it and has only one thing on it's mind. Which makes the turkey look just like what he is, a big turkey. * The founding fathers didn't agree with Ben Franklin on the turkey. They felt the bald eagle would appear more powerful and regal.
