“What did he do?!” wrote a woman from Seattle in the caption of a TikTok video showing a wild turkey fiercely scratching the hood of her Cadillac.
“Looking at the pattern of the scratch marks it’s easy to know what happened, but imagine explaining this to the insurance company?” joked one user.
Debates over insurance coverage regarding the turkey attack filled the comment section.
The most plausible answer is yes, the insurance would cover a turkey attack, but only if the customer has the video as proof and holds what is called “comprehensive coverage.”
As for the type of insurance, only comprehensive coverage covers incidents with animals, although the emphasis is usually on things like colliding with a moose.
Liability coverage, which is the minimum required in most U.S. states, does not cover damage caused by wild turkeys.
