Wild Turkeys on Campus

It’s not every day I get an e-mail like this (received last Friday at my school e-mail):

As many of you have noted, there is a group of wild turkeys who have made our campus their home.  Recently we have received reports that some of these turkeys are becoming quite aggressive.  Campus Safety is researching our options for coping with this situation and will provide a more comprehensive response to the campus community shortly.  In the meantime, please use caution encountering the wild turkeys – do not engage them, run after them or provoke them.

One of my friends comments that he deals with problems like these with a 12 gauge shotgun.
