Brush Turkeys Take Over Sydney

Brush Turkeys Take Over Sydney

Published 8 hours ago
Description

Australian brush turkeys are on the move—now spotted in 300 Sydney suburbs, boldly snatching burgers and digging up gardens, a stark contrast to their near-extinct past. Once confined to the north, these ground-dwelling birds are spreading fast, puzzling scientists like zoologist John Martin, who’s tracking them with GPS. While some see them as urban nuisances, others are awed by their street-smart swagger. It’s a wild tale of recovery and adaptation: thriving in cities but endangered in parts of northern NSW. Their story’s a reminder that nature’s comeback can be messy—and deeply human.
