Why did the chicken cross the road? You ready for the answer:
To get to the Pentagon
The Pentagon recently apprehended an unusual intruder -- a chicken that was spotted sneaking around a security area.
The loose hen was found early one morning last week near the U.S. Department of Defense headquarters, the Animal Welfare League of Arlington, Virginia, wrote on its Facebook page.
“Apparently, the answer to ‘why did the chicken cross the road’ is to get to the Pentagon,” the group posted.
The chicken -- dubbed Henny Penny, one of the names given to the chicken that thinks “the sky is falling” in a folk tale -- was taken into custody by one of the league’s employees.
Chelsea Jones, a spokesperson for the organization, told USA Today that Henny Penny is being adopted by a staff member who has a small farm in western Virginia.
