Chickens Are Intelligent

Like some other birds and chimps among other animals, chickens can do simple arithmetic. Dr. Marino writes, “Chickens possess some understanding of numerosity and share some very basic arithmetic capacities with other animals.”

A study published in 2009 even found arithmetic abilities in newborn chicks, concluding that “in the absence of any specific training, chicks spontaneously discriminated between two and three, in both cases preferring the larger stimulus set.”

For once, open up your eyes and mind. Stop giving excuses. Quit killing chickens and giving them a miserable life just for your gastrointestinal pleasures. Grow up and be kind.
