Which would make a better
of the United States – a bald eagle or a
turkey?

More than 200 years ago, the Founding
Fathers wanted to choose an animal for
the great seal of the United States. They
wanted an animal that would
what the newly formed United States of
America was all about.

For six years,
bitterly
debated which animal would be the
country’s symbol. Finally in 1782 the
bald eagle was selected.
Not everyone thought the bald eagle was
the right animal. Benjamin Franklin
thought the turkey was a better symbol.
Franklin wrote to his daughter, referring
to the eagle’s “bad moral character,”
saying, “I wish the bald eagle had not
been chosen as the representative of
our country! The turkey is a much
more respectable bird, and withal a
true original native of America.”
The bald eagle supporters finally had
their way and it has been the national
bird of the United States since 1782,
when it was placed with
wings on the great seal of our country.

But, Ben Franklin’s words remind us
that the turkey is also a special creature.
In truth, if someone calls you a turkey,
take it as a compliment!
