bull.
>
> >They're packed with nutrients."
>
> >The turkey pecked at a lump of dung, and found it actually gave him
>enough
>
> >strength to reach the lowest branch of the tree. The next day, after
>eating
>
> >some more dung, he reached the second branch. Finally after a fourth
>night,
>
> >the turkey was proudly perched at the top of the tree.
