This is the hilarious moment a trucker forces a mischievous turkey out of his vehicle - only to meet its fate seconds later.

After watching the animal's cruel end, the driver quips 'well he didn't make it very far'.

The incident is believed to have happened on a US highway, the equivalent to a British motorway.

While driving his truck on the highway, Kevin Bokelman had a large turkey fly through the window into the front cabin.

Footage shows him stopping his truck by the road to get the animal back to freedom, but things quickly complicated.

'Right, I've got to try get this turkey out of my truck,' he can be heard saying while at first deciding how to deal with the large creature.

At first making shooing noises at the animal, he realises the bird might need a bit more direction.

'OK, you've got to go stupid. C'mon go out the same way you came in,' he says pointing at the cabin's window.

When imitating a turkey 'gobble gobble' noise doesn't work either, he walks around to a side door to force the turkey out.

Getting back into the front of the cabin he once again shoos the bird to exit.

'Alright, door's open get the f*** out,' he says as the bird quickly takes flight to avoid his waving.
