Akatorimon, I think fits the bill because for one, it's the more unique choice. Also, it's supposed to be larger than Kokatorimon, but not in a good way. This makes it slower, and it tires easily. So, it's not very active. It can't fight very well, because it uses up too much energy. This, I think makes it a perfect target for hunters. Like a turkey. Personally, if I had to try to catch one of these things, I'd go for Akkatorimon, because you can tire it out easier. Apparently, it gets confused while running too. I'm sorry, but this digimon just screams turkey to me. sweatdrop

When I look at a Kokatorimon, I see a great big, 'albino' turkey. It's massive legs would make for the perfect drumsticks on the kitchen table. When I encounter wild turkeys, I feel myself somewhat petrified in fear from stories I've heard of wild turkey attacks. With that in mind, I find it rather intriging that this digimon has the same effect on it's prey in a more literal sense.
In thoughts of which I would prefer on my table, I tend to be a person that will enjoy eating things that were a bit of a challenge to devour. It's subspecies is great big chicken that runs away from fights and often gets confused. If the saying, "You are what you eat," holds true, I'd much rather have eaten a Kokatorimon that would also fight for his right at the top of the food chain. That way when I've brought him to the table, I can say, "Ah Kokatorimon, you were a worthy opponent and may your strength grow in me as I devour you." raising a gigantic drumstick in its honor.

I said Akatorimon, just because he's harvest colors pretty much... (the whole red beard sort of thing he has also sort of looks like a turkey's waddle... or whatever that flap of skin on their face is called) That feels more thanksgivingy than Kokatorimon to me. xp Although I think Deramon is also a pretty good harvest-themed Digimon... Then again, Akatorimon could also even digivolve to Deramon, which would quantify the whole 'harvest' line even more. xD
The other reason I don't think Kokatorimon is the best choice here is because of his grumpy nature. According to Digimon World 1 and some other sources, a Kokatorimon is a Biyomon that never learned to fly, and thus was never able to become Birdramon, which as we know is every Biyomon's dream. Kokatorimon, of course, is actually a pretty powerful Digimon with the ability to petrify things, so I could say that he's not very thankful for the fact that he's a powerful champion, or that he got to digivolve at all-- and thus not the best choice to represent the holiday of Thanksgiving. Granted, we don't know Akatorimon's personality that much, and he might also be grumpy, but for some reason I get the impression that he's a little more good-natured than his mythical cousin. xP I also think it's a little odd that we'd have a mythical animal celebrating a very grounded-in-historical-fact (for the most part LOL) holiday.
So that's my two cents on the matter, I suppose. =3=
((I did actually edit this post with a more sufficient reason than what I first put; if that in some way violates the rules, let me know and I'll take myself out of the running and delete this post.))
