Turkey Hunter & Dead Neighbours

An upstate New York turkey hunter is receiving rabies shots after he was attacked by coyotes. A wildlife expert says the coyotes may have mistaken the hunter for a turkey — if you look like a turkey and sound like a turkey, don't be surprised if you're mistaken for a turkey.

Neighbours had long assumed the lonely old man moved from his Chicago home years ago. Mail piled up. Utilities were shut off. Grass grew. Paint peeled. The house was sold at a tax auction on Tuesday, and the new owners found him when they entered. He was sitting in a rocking chair, dead. Apparently, he had died in the chair and remained there for at least four years.
