  1. I worked in polk county turkey farm, they have truck drivers driving all night long during load out. If a turkey happens to touch the ground they can get other diseases from other birds, like cross contamination! So they make you kill the turkeys..

  2. There weren't turkeys running around. Stop being so dramatic. I was there. They didn't have to get people to " round them up either. Once the truck and trailer were upright they were towed to a lot and offloaded into another truck. It was dark and cold. If you knew anything about farm raised turkeys you'd know they huddle up in the cold. And they can hardly see in the dark. Long story short. You could dump the whole load on the field and they wouldn't go more than a few feet
