Fact Of the Day: Turkey |
|
|
Thursday, 08 May 2008 |
|
This is the 129th day of the year, with 237 days remaining in 2008.
Fact of the Day: turkey
Domestication of the common turkey was probably begun by the Indians of
Pre-Columbian Mexico. The birds were first taken to Spain about 1519,
and from Spain they spread throughout Europe, reaching England in 1541.
When the bird became popular in England, the name turkey-cock, formerly
used for the guinea fowl of Islamic (or "Turkish") lands, was
transferred to it. English colonists then introduced European-bred
strains of the turkey to eastern North America in the 17th century.
Turkeys were mainly bred for their beautifully colored plumage until
about 1935, after which the breeding emphasis changed to their meat
qualities.
