Profiles and statistics

- Threat:
- These high-flying fowl are a lot tougher to handle than they look. They hover on high, waiting for Wario to draw near before swooping down to attack. This dive-bomb assault is so fast that it's usually tough to see a Turkeyjerk coming until it's too late! Jump to dodge a diving Turkeyjerk, then quickly bounce off its head to stun it before it takes to the sky again. Once it's stunned, Wario can dash into a Turkeyjerk to dispatch it, or grab and shake the bird to send it running off![1]
- TIP: Shake Turkeyjerks to send them running through rows of tiny stone blocks, clearing out crawlspaces for Wario to explore.[1]
