Lizzie “The Free Spirit” Prior to coming to Farm Sanctuary, the farm that Lizzie lived on was marketed as a local “humane” farm. However, this couldn’t have been further from the truth – instead the animals on this farm lived in severe neglect and received no care. Despite her harrowing past, Lizzie lives each day to the fullest at Farm Sanctuary and spends her days with her best friends, Dulce and Zuzu turkeys, and entertaining her caregivers by preferring to lie underneath the nesting boxes,...

Each member of our flock has a distinct personality – Tutu is outgoing and charms everyone she meets, Thelma is a kind and sensitive soul, Celeborn loves to show off and impress our guests, Arendelle is sweet but sassy, and Lizzie prefers to live life according to her own rules. Despite their differences, they are each a valued member of our Farm Sanctuary family and they are all ambassadors for the 46 million turkeys...

Tutu “The Charmer” Tutu turkey was born on a factory farm—and, had all gone to plan, she would have been slaughtered for someone’s Thanksgiving dinner. Tutu’s life turned around when a New York City artist rescued her with the intent of sharing Tutu’s story through art. While the project never took flight (the artist’s school wouldn’t let her keep a bird in her studio), Tutu made it to Farm Sanctuary, where she has put her dark origins behind her and blossomed into one of the friendliest...

Thelma “The Tender Heart” Thelma’s rescuer freed her from meat production. While most turkeys today are bred to have white feathers (this yields light-colored bodies, per consumer demand), heritage breeds like Thelma are slaughtered for food as well. Shortly after her rescue, wildfires nearly destroyed her home. Thelma once again needed a safe place to land––and she found it at Farm Sanctuary. Thelma is a shy, but kind and sensitive soul. She now spends her days roaming her yard and snuggling...

Celeborn “The Protector” Celeborn’s former guardians had good intentions, but they took on too many animals and found themselves in over their heads. Now, safe at Farm Sanctuary, he’s free to live a life of his choosing—and he prefers one where he’s in charge. Celeborn is bossy around people but has a soft spot for the birds he’s trying to impress. His biggest devotees are the turkey hens who live next door—and he’ll chase off anyone who dares to come too close to his terrain. He’s charming,...

Arendelle “The Cuddle Bug” Arendelle is a very popular lady who can always be found at the center of the group, but her life wasn’t always as safe and secure as it is now. In 2014, a staff member at our New York sanctuary found 24 baby turkeys who had been left anonymously overnight, likely from a factory farm. The babies, Arendelle included, were dirty, sick with upper respiratory infections, and had suffered “debeaking” – a procedure in which the sensitive, nerve-filled tip of the beak is...
