I've been trying to organize something for the past two years and just can't seem to get everything in order to make it happen. Perhaps you can help. I am convinced that Missouri and/or Illinois needs an annual turkey drop. Here's how to make this dream a reality.
Flocks of wild turkeys can be spotted all over yards, streets, and fields throughout Illinois this time of year, but do you know how they differ from domesticated turkeys?
It's not easy being a police officer. Don't believe me? Watch a Midwestern police force that was called to an apartment break-in only to learn the "offender" was a wild turkey. Then, the fun began.
According to the University of Illinois Extension, there are over 150,000 turkeys in Illinois, with populations in every one of Illinois' 102 counties. And, those populations are growing.
This news will be received differently depending on your household. At my house, there's a woman that I'm married to that is not going to be happy about this, while at Joe Dredge's place, he'll have to work hard to hide his glee at a potential turkey shortage.
