Consider the source. The Born Free Foundation is a major AR group.
Notice how they say 'domestic pets' in the header, but it turns out to
be chickens. That kind of hyperbole disqualifies everything they had to
say, even if it is truthful to some extent.

I've seen bears ride motorcycles. They were actually controlling the
bike. If they didn't want to do this, they wouldn't do it!
