Plymouth  Colony, imposing Biblical Law, hanged Thomas Granger for 
beastiality after  first killing all the animals he had had sex with (they symbolically 
killed 3  wild  turkeys to atone for the turkey he had sex with).

Perhaps the turkeys co-religionists felt that they were unfairly  targeted?
