>>1703246I had a massive gobbler out on my place for a few years, as large as any farm raised. His beard dragged on the ground. He'd come up my driveway every evening (that's like a 500 yard walk) while doing his daily route.
Then one day he just stopped showing up.
It wasn't hunting season so either a coyote got him or he just died of old age. I like to think it was age and he went peacefully in the forest.
