Gobbling up attention: Wild turkeys showing up on Toronto doorsteps

In the past three months 311 has fielded more than 100 calls reporting wild turkey sightings: Torontonians concerned about turkeys in traffic, public parks, and even laying eggs in backyard nests.

But officials don’t have a tally on Toronto turkeys. The Toronto Wildlife Centre doesn’t track turkey numbers, and so it’s hard to say whether they’re the same few turkeys wandering around the city or whether there are dozens - or more. “It’s possible it’s one gang of turkeys but it’s also possible there’s several groups of turkeys going through peoples’ backyards,” said Allair. “They can be show-stoppers.”

Although the birds can fly, they don’t migrate. They do forage where there is food, and so officials advise against feeding them.“What is a wild turkey doing in Toronto and in my backyard?” tweeted Scott Savard. “Honest to god, never thought turkeys could fly.”
