I am going to ask for confirmation from our hunter non par but in my book that bird on the car seat aint no turkey vulture...thats a turkey.
Wouldnt be the first time that law enforcement didnt get it right. I remember I had to stick around after finding 30 some bags of animal torsos in the reservation as the sheriffs couldnt identify them either.
The bird in the pic...legs to long, tail feathers reddish brown compared to the rest of the plumage, too much variation in the plumage.. turkey vultures dont have these white marbeled feathers...
Just look at this pic.

Well poor things ...domesticated turkeys are indeed stupid. They cant fly (to fat) so they tend to panic and run. If they hit a fence they still keep running and then crush smaller/weaker ones underneath them... Yup not the sharpest tools in the shed.

Actually I think you guys are confusing wild with domestic turkeys. VERY different animals with the wild ones winning in the brains department

Indeed. The flight of the turkey vulture is majestic. One morning I was in the Home Depot Vauxhall parking lot and witnessed them in flight. They do it so effortlessly.
