Can a turkey drown if they look up in the rain?

No, turkeys cannot drown if they look up in the rain. Turkeys have a natural defense mechanism that prevents water from entering their lungs when they look up. This defense mechanism is called the glottis, and it is a small flap of tissue that covers the opening to the windpipe. When a turkey looks up, the glottis closes and prevents water from entering the lungs.
