a turkey's dewlap is the flap of skin under its neck. Also called a Wattle.
dewlap or caruncle
In most breeds the doe has a dewlap and a buck is disqualified if it has a dewlap. Some breeds do not have a dewlap at all. A doe will have a dewlap by the time she is breeding age (which is 6 months:)
No, several other animals have a dewlap
farmers have genetically altered the original perception of turkeys. the reason for this is that the "flap" of skin is edible for human consumption and apparently tastes very nice so the farmers can get even more money for selling that flap of skin

It's the female rabbits that have the extra fur. It's called a dewlap. It's different from the dewlap of other animals in that it's fatty, and the mother rabbit plucks fur from her dewlap to line her nest for her babies.

breeding and territorial reasons
The Grevy's zebra is the only type of zebra that has a dewlap, which is a flap of skin hanging from their neck. It is more prominent in males and is used for communication and displays during mating rituals.
