Teenage boys will hump a dead cat in a trash barrel. Turkeys seem pretty discerning to me.

@grins - I agree with the teenage boys comment - as for turkeys, I have no personal opinion as apart from a few in the zoo, I have never really seen any, or had a chance to watch them over a period of time. I do know that peacocks will mate with just about any peahen, even their own offspring, and then the offspring from that questionable mating, and so on.
