  • The wild turkey that had been wandering the busy streets of a Scarborough neighbourhood for a few months has been safely rescued and released!
    The fearless fowl made Toronto news yesterday after weaving through heavy traffic and sometimes following or pecking vehicles - dangerously close to a highway 401 on ramp. Concerned residents called the Toronto police who then reached out to our Wildlife Hotline for help. Worried the large bird could be struck at any moment, our Rescue Team was soon on their way.
    Watch the amazing capture and the turkey’s swift return to the wild.

    Happy to see it was caught and relocated. I drove past him twice that day. He's been hanging around there for months.

    What a great catch Andrew! Thanks to TWC who came through as always to help Toronto wildlife, and thanks to all the kind hearted neighbours who reported this potentially deadly situation. That turkey had a lot of friends looking out for him.

    That catch from Andrew was something else! Wow! Fantastic skill! What a great story and I loved seeing the turkey fly off in the end into the tree... I had no idea they can fly that high! Great video of a wild turkey chase that ended well. Thanks TWC!

    Honestly the production quality and editing on these videos is great. You deserve more attention on UA-cam seriously. Hope the algorithm blesses you some time TWC!

      Take it from someone who went to film school. This is genuinely good content. Informative, good audio quality, steady camera work, each video tells a self-contained story, custom thumbnails. It doesn't go unappreciated or unnoticed.

    Please share this with Louisville, Quebec, as they recently murdered a turkey as a “pest”. 😢

      We're so sorry to hear about the poor turkey. If you're a resident in Louisville, Quebec, try reaching out to your local city counsellor to share your opinion about this terrible act and encourage them to implement better solutions for wildlife (you're welcome to share this video with them too).
