Very interesting video.  It is something I have never seen before and I live where there are a lot of wild turkeys.

My dad saw something similar only it was deer doing the behavior.  It didn't involve a dead predator but involved deer running an obstacle course deep in the woods.  He said there was a line of around a dozen deer standing nose to tail and the deer at the head of the line would take off and run an obstacle course.  When it was done it would go the back of the line and the deer now at the head of the line would run the same course.  He watched it for a half hour or so and the deer just took turns running that same course. and then going to the back of the line to wait their turn to run it again.
