Question: are turkeys and peacocks in the same family

Answer: Yes, The Phasianidae are a family of heavy, groundliving birds which includes pheasants, partridges, junglefowl, chickens, turkey birds, Old World quail, and peafowl. The family includes many of the most popular gamebirds. The family is a large one, and is occasionally broken up into two subfamilies, the Phasianinae, and the Perdicinae. Sometimes, additional families and birds are treated as part of this family. For example, the American Ornithologists' Union includes Tetraonidae (grouse), Numididae (guineafowl), and Meleagrididae (turkeys) as subfamilies in Phasianidae.
