The turkey is more than capable of stopping literally a house cat... And the dinos are not enough to stop the species the comics is really about.

Wild turkeys are violent mofos.

The butterballs? Lol.

City folks think the whole world is a petting zoo. I've seen a grown man, built like a bouncer, running in panic trying to escape a tiny banty rooster. This particular rooster was known to have killed two snakes and a hawk and nothing on that farm fucked with this little two pound sack of feathers more than once.

I think the main issue in that circumstance is you don’t have a lot of options as a human, at least not without tools. You’d have absolutely no trouble just killing the chicken, but there isn’t much option for a middle ground where both sides leave unscathed.

lol "city folks" isn't a thing anymore dude, everyone is city folks nowadays. Living in the suburbs doesn't make you a worldly farmer.

[–] greedytacothief 4 points 1 month ago

City folks are definitely a thing, and suburban folks ain't much different. The US is big and has a lot of rural communities. Even the most populated states (California, Texas, New York) all have large areas of agriculture or otherwise sparse population
