"Wild turkey" = gà tây hoang dã, chưa được thuần hóa. "Wild Turkey" cũng là tên một thương hiệu rượu whiskey ngô của Mỹ.

Ví dụ
Wild turkeys are a familiar sight throughout New Hampshire, where flocks strut (từng đàn bước oai vệ) along roadsides and wander through backyards.

By the time Thanksgiving became an official U.S. holiday in 1863, wild turkeys had nearly disappeared. But Depression-era (thời kỳ Đại suy thoái) shifts in land use helped the animals rebound (phục hồi).

According to company lore (truyền thuyết), Wild Turkey got its name after a hunting expedition. A distillery (nhà máy rượu) executive named Thomas McCarthy brought some whiskey samples from then-owner Austin Nichols & Co. on a wild turkey hunt.

Wild Turkey’s roots trace (nguồn gốc) to 1855, when Austin Nichols & Co., a wholesale grocer (tay bán buôn tạp phẩm), set up shop in Lawrenceburg, Ky. That company eventually took over what would become Wild Turkey Bourbon, now one of the top-selling whiskey brands in the country.
