To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Thence the domesticated form appears to have been returned to this country, where it has been a favorite in a measure unknown in the Old World. Ornithologists deem the Cuban turkey, whence our tame form came, to be specifically distinct from those which are found on the Digitized by Google 1 66 DOMESTICATED ANIMALS mainland of this continent. Although these kinds are dis- tinguishable by plumage, they are probably only varieties of a common species. This is indicated by the fact that our tame f...locks readily intermingle with their wild kindred.
The ease with which the turkey becomes domesticated is remarkable. In this regard the creature may be compared to our cocks and hens. In both cases the tamableness is doubtless to be explained by the fact that the primitive forms dwelt in permanent association, the movements of which were in a way controlled by the adult males, and by the fact that the forms had abandoned the use of wings for wide-ranging flight. The change which has been brought about in the turkeys with their adoption into the human association has been slight.
