'''Turkey''' is the name given to two species of North American bird, the common turkey (''Meleagris gallopavo'') of the eastern United States and Canada, and the ocellated turkey (''Meleagris ocellata'') of Central America. Of the two, the common turkey is classed as a game bird and hunted seasonally, as well as being the only wild bird successfully domesticated by man in the Western Hemisphere.
