Funny enough we get lots of goannas and brush turkeys here. The turkeys build large mounds to incubate eggs. The goannas raid them for food. The male turkeys guard the nests so we get to see Turkey -v- goanna showdowns a bit. The goannas use their tails like whips to try strike the turkeys and the turkeys tray to rake leaves and dirt over the goanas. Normally there is no actual contact between them. They go to and fro for a bit till the goana decides dirt in the eyes isn't worth staying around.
