Wild turkey shatters window at dentistâs office, enters examination room By KOVR Staff | March 4, 2021 at 9:03 AM MST - Updated March 4 at 9:10 AM
FAIR OAKS, Calif. (KOVR) â A wild turkey certainly ruffled feathers with his ungraceful entrance at a dentistâs office recently.
Photos show the giant hole he left in a glass window of an examination room.
The bird eventually got plucked up and sent to Gold Country Wildlife Rescue, where heâs now recovering.
âUsually they knock themselves out when they go into the window,â said Greg Grimm, treasurer of Gold Country Wildlife Rescue.
Grimmâs theory is that the turkey mistook his reflection for another male and attacked what he thought was a competitor for mates, since itâs now mating season for wild turkeys.
