The wild turkeys reminded me of something a friend told us when we visited Queensland in Australia. They had wild bush turkeys around their property and my husband asked if they were any good for eating. Our friend said, just put them in a pot with boiling water and a stone. When the stone is soft the turkey is ready.

We did not take the safari ride but somehow a whole herd of buffalo were crossing the road as we drove on it.
