    I say this too, not as an engineer, but when reading the self important downers in battle forums saying a giant chicken wouldn’t beat a lion only because of this stupid law, instead of just entertaining the idea

      They’re also completely wrong. You can go see Lucy in Chicago and see with your own eyes the skeleton of the giant chicken that would take out a lion in one bite.

      My hen and I were having a bit of a staredown one afternoon and she instantly and with no warning snapped her head to the side and chomped a bee out of the air, swallowed it, and was immediately back to staring me down.
