    Turkeys: invasive, will absolutely move in and fuck up your shit

    Bald Eagle: almost went extinct because it ran out of a particular type of tree.

    Turkeys: will eat literally anything under the sun. Grass. Seeds. Other, smaller inferior turkeys. Car bumpers.

    Bald eagles: almost went extinct because salmon was in short supply.

    Turkeys: big, fat, aggressive birds with absolutely no fucks to give. The Always Sunny crew if they were all birds and not just D.

    Bald Eagles: sleek, reclusive, and quiet. Literally sounds like a mouse.

    It’s turkeys, it was always turkeys. It’s not even close.

      It was hunting (considered pests) and DDT (pesticide that made the eggshells break too easily) that made eagles almost go extinct.
