(Shutterstock) WENHAM, MA — Wild turkeys have been spotted in Wenham and officials are offering residents tips to keep them at bay. Turkeys have been spotted near Pleasant Street and officials warned that wild turkeys can be dangerous and aggressive. Here are some tips from Wenham Animal Control and the Massachusetts Division of Fisheries and Wildlife on how to respond when encountering a wild turkey: Do not feed turkeys — they will become tame but could possibly have angry or wild outbursts. Keep all bird feeder areas clean — bird seed attracts turkeys and they will flock to the feeder if there is seed on the ground. Remove feeders in the spring as well, as birds will be able to find plenty of natural food.
