–Thanksgiving Facts: The first Thanksgiving was celebrated as a harvest festival in 1621, with 50 Pilgrims and 90 Wampanoag Indians, and lasted 3 days! However, historians believe there was NO turkey eaten. Duck, Geese, and Swan were believed to have been the main courses. Now, each year, around 46 million turkeys are cooked on Thanksgiving. And in 1989, 41^st President George H. W. Bush was the first to pardon the White House turkey, ensuring the bird would never become someone’s Thanksgiving dinner. Since then, every president has upheld the tradition, and a few of the turkeys have gone on to serve a different purpose. In 2005 and 2009, the birds went to Disneyland and Disney World parks to participate in their annual Thanksgiving parades.                                                    -Nathan
