A symbol of the first Thanksgiving, the wild turkey is making a giant comeback in New Jersey, where the tall brown birds are found everywhere, even strutting their stuff in suburban yards.

"They are not big, but they are good and really tasty. They are better than the store-bought turkeys," Cass McCarthy said.
Yummy.
