Feb. 17 (UPI) — A Connecticut woman captured video when a pair of wild turkeys set their sites on a UPS driver attempting to make neighborhood deliveries.
The video, posted to TikTok by Hindy Jaffee, shows the UPS driver luring the turkeys to the side of his truck so he could evade them to make his package deliveries in Branford.
The driver runs back to his truck to grab another package, yelling at the turkeys to “back up.”
“Jesus Christ. I’m 40-years-old, I can’t be dealing with this,” the driver says, before running off to make his delivery — with the turkeys in hot pursuit.
Jaffee said the turkeys are known to be neighborhood annoyances, often chasing cars and blocking traffic. She said it was the first time she has seen the birds chase after a person on foot.
