My grandpa used to have backyard chickens. I saw a couple of chickens completely brutalize and dismember a field mouse that had made it into their coop. I also have a pet parrot, he's small, but if that little fucker was 6' tall and pissed off, I'd be dead. Even at his size he can mess you up. If dinosaurs were just bigger versions of current chickens, they'd eat us all.

when I was little, my neighbor had this tiny chicken that acted like a guard dog. It would chase and attack anything that comes near the front gate. All the neighbor kids are traumatized by that little fucker, including me. That's why I have an eternal fear of chicken, even now as a 6"2' male adult.
