They might taste like a turkey but they don't look anything like a turkey...!

Have been to a WA station property where the owners had a large framed picture of a massive one standing on the ground with its wings open in a guarded pose - would have been a good six feet across...!

Was also closely involved with an incident where a road train driver had one go through his windshield and the driver definitely came off worse for wear.

They were probably fortunate it didn't hit the windshield of the Fokker...!
