Should coalition troops invade Iraq, chickens will be pressed into service as gas-detectors.
The poultry, which otherwise would end up on Kuwaiti dinner tables, will cross the desert in cages atop Humvees driven by soldiers and marines. If the chickens keel over, troops will know to don protective gear.
and of course PETA would rather have our troops die than some chickens :rolleyes:
"These animals never enlisted, they know nothing of Iraq or Saddam Hussein, and they probably won't survive," said PETA spokesman Arathi Jayaram.
