Relax. They can retrieve some DNA after it’s pooped out and clone it (the bird).

So much for that "early bird" BS. All the "late birds" are still flying around happily in the forest.

If animals are too stupid to survive, they should be killed and eaten, the nature las of survival. Just like banks that are too stupid to stay alive should be killed and eaten by another bank - it is called bankruptcy and take over, the natural law of capitalism. Where is the stimulus package for the poor, little, stupid birdie? Same holds true for the stupid little mouse in Pelosi's beloved San Francisco.

It reminds me of an old joke about a guy who gave his buddy an expensive parrot for his birthday.
The day after, the guy calls his buddy to ask how he liked the gift.
The buddy says, “Thanks! It was delcious!”
“Delicious? Good God, that bird could speak in four different languages!”
“Then why didn’t it say something?”
