Peace dies: Turkey named "Peace" less than a year after being pardoned by Obama; fellow pardoned turkey named "Liberty" lives on
Quote:
Peace, one of two turkeys
pardoned by President Obama last year, was euthanized Monday, according to an official who insisted the timing of the death - days before the Thanksgiving holiday - was not suspicious.
Quote:
Peace had served as the understudy for Liberty, another turkey, at the 2011 pardoning ceremony by President Obama. Obama chose to pardon both birds to spare them from the fate of the plate.
