    Interesting fact on the turkey's name.

    youtube.com/shorts/smtury0cT-c

    Turns out most countries named it after their colonizers. People called it Turkey because they believed it came from Turkey (the country). Other countries named it "chicken from India".

    Except in Mexico and Central/South America where it was a native species, and its name in Nahuatl "huehxolotl" meant "big monster".

    Happy guajolote day! 🦃
