 FRAZEE, MN, USA -- The town of Frazee, Minnesota — known as the Turkey Capital of the World — hosts a 20 feet tall turkey statue ("Big Tom") which is known as a popular roadside attraction and sets the world record for the Largest monument to the Turkey.

   The legs were made a little shorter and stouter than a normal turkey to better handle the weight.
   The Largest monument to the Turkey is estimated to have 3,000 to 4,000 separate fiberglass feathers, which took the D.W.O. Fiberglass Company over 2,000 hours to make.
