Meleagris (genus) (Meleagrididae (family), Galliformes (order), ... Living Organisms (hierarchy name))

 

Note: Members of a genus containing two living species of large North American birds having a distinctive fleshy wattle that hangs from the underside of the beak, and a fleshy protuberance that hangs from the top of its beak called a snood. It prefers woodlands near water, eating seeds, insects, and an occasional frog or lizard. When alarmed it may run rapidly to cover, but it can fly strongly for only short distances. Turkeys were first domesticated for their feathers and meat in Pre-Columbian Mexico; they were introduced to Europe, and are now valued as a table fowl in numerous countries.

Additional Notes:
Chinese (traditional) ..... 屬名,包含大型北美鳥類的兩個現存物種,鳥喙的下側具有獨特的肉垂,以及自鳥喙頂端垂下的肉瘤(稱為snood),性喜棲息於水邊的林地,以種子、昆蟲為食,偶爾吃青蛙或蜥蜴。受到驚嚇時,會快速奔走隱匿,只能強力飛行很短的距離。火雞最早在哥倫布時期前的墨西哥被馴養以取得羽毛與食用肉,而後被引進歐洲,現在是許多國家重要的肉用家禽。 
Dutch ..... Genus van twee levende vogelsoorten die in Noord-Amerika voorkomen. Het zijn grote vogels met opvallende vlezige lellen boven op en onder aan de snavel. In het wild geven ze de voorkeur aan bosrijke gebieden met water in de buurt. Ze eten zaden, insecten en soms een kikker of hagedis. Wanneer de vogels schrikken, kunnen ze hard wegrennen om zich in veiligheid te brengen, maar goed vliegen kunnen ze alleen over korte afstanden. Kalkoenen werden voor het eerst gedomesticeerd in precolumbiaans Mexico en daar gehouden vanwege hun veren en vlees. Men heeft ze geïntroduceerd in Europa en tegenwoordig wordt het dier in vele landen gewaardeerd vanwege zijn vlees. 
Eastern Huasteca Nahuatl ..... Campa oncah ome tlamantli totomeh ipan America del Norte, ininyolixco tlahuel nacayoh huan huiyoni ica itzalan tlen itencomich huan tlahuel neci iyolixcanayoh tlen huiyoni iixco itencomich, itocah quence ayatl.

Spanish ..... Miembros de un género que contiene dos especies vivas de grandes aves de América del Norte que tienen un característico zarzo carnoso que cuelga de la parte inferior del pico y una protuberancia carnosa que cuelga de la parte superior de su pico llamada redecilla. Prefieren los bosques cerca del agua, comiendo semillas, insectos y ocasionalmente una rana o un lagarto. Cuando se alarma, puede correr rápidamente para cubrirse, pero puede volar con fuerza sólo en distancias cortas. Los pavos fueron domesticados por primera vez por sus plumas y carne en el México precolombino; fueron introducidos en Europa y ahora se valoran en la gastronomía de numerosos países.
