Quirks & Questions: Why are those turkeys circling that dead cat?

You ask the question, we find the answer.
A wild turkey in flight. (Andy Reago & Chrissy McClarren)

This week's question was inspired by video taken by a man on his way to work in Randolph, Massachusetts.  The video shows a cat — sadly laying dead in the road — being continually circled by flock of about 20 wild turkeys.  Truly bizarre!  

One of our twitter followers - Trina @Catrionadawn - saw it and said she really wants to know what is happening.  

Dr. Bridget Stutchbury from York University in Toronto, has the answer.
