Wild turkeys fly just fine.

It's the commercial turkeys that can barely waddle, let alone fly. They're bred for meat production.

They are more widely separated from their wild brethren than hunting type Labrador Retrievers from their show brothers and sisters (those dogs look hungry.)

You’re right of course. There is quite a distinction between the two. I was hiking in the Cuyahoga Valley Reservation last Spring, searching for Morels, when I came upon the largest Tom I’ve ever seen! He was perched on the end of a log sticking out over a deep, steep gully. Was quite surprised he didn’t notice me. Sat and watched him for 15 minutes, before he took off down into the gully where his girls were. Quite a sight! Huge bird! Wingspan well over 6 feet easy.
