US President Barack Obama, alongside his daughter Malia Obama (R) and National Turkey Federation Chairman Walter Pelletier (2nd L), pet a turkey named Courage during the annual turkey pardoning ceremony for Thanksgiving on the North Portico of the White House in Washington, DC, on November 25, 2009. After the ceremony, the 20-week-old, 45-pound (20,4kg) turkey from Princeton, North Carolina, along with a backup named Carolina should Courage get stage fright, will fly to Disneyland in southern California to take part in the theme park's annual Thanksgiving Day parade.
