    I don't know anything else about it as I just herd it from my teacher.

    I know that it would be labled cruelty thats why I wondered why it would be going on.

    Maybe they arent alive then, but still thats so wrong!

    I saw a news story about people throwing frozen turkey's that were on fire. They were swinging them on a rope over their heads & the person who threw the turkey the farthest won. I don't know what state it was from.

    Perhaps that's what your teacher meant?

    This sounds more plausible.

    That's pretty gross, if it's true. I've never heard anything like that, though.

    Glacier,

    That was my first thought too. I'm SURE it's a frozen turkey. Like Karen said, if it isn't frozen, then what they're doing is cruelty and illegal.

    I think these guys have figured it out... if they're right, then all I have to say is what a waste of food and animal's lives...
