Question
One of these animals named “Old Abe” served as the 8th Wisconsin Infantry Regiment’s mascot in the Civil War. A World War I-era Alaskan bounty on these animals was repealed in 1953 despite a 1940 Protection Act named for them. Along with a golden variety, objects from these animals were the largest to be used in the making of Native American war bonnets. Benjamin Franklin allegedly preferred the wild turkey to this animal, disliking its thieving behavior. For 10 points, name this national symbol depicted clutching an olive branch and thirteen arrows in the Great Seal of the United States. ■END■
