We at 10,000 Birds have mentioned before the unpopularity of the Wild Turkeys of Staten Island. Sadly, it seems that someone has taken the hatred to a whole new level. Police are looking for a driver who apparently intentionally drove into a flock of turkeys in Dongan Hills, Staten Island, on Monday. Won’t somebody think of the poults? The poor little poults?
