No Biggie, Just A Wild Turkey Waiting For The Bus

Eat Your Heart Out Ikea Monkey

It's not every day you see a turkey at your local bus stop, but for residents of Armour Road in Peterborough, Ont., watching the birds roam the streets is getting kind of old.

A few weeks ago, local news site PTBO Canada tweeted there was a traffic alert due to wild turkeys on the road. As it turned out, these wild turkeys have called Armour Road their home for a few months now.

But as these birds have gained a small measure of fame, they've also become a major distraction. In November, one turkey had to be euthanized after roaming the streets and getting hit by a car, according to MyKawartha.com. The site also says the fallen turkey's sibling now calls Armour Road its official home — a true lone bird.

Just this past weekend, Twitter user Jessie James posted this photo of a wild turkey in a bus shelter. And while it may not be the Ikea monkey, perhaps it's time for the Peterborough turkey to have its time in the spotlight.
