Helmets for chickens in Taiwan

Lim Sheng Chieh from Taiwan has posted photos of a peculiar helmet, designed to protect his grandfather's chickens from falling durians. It seems a good idea, but apparently failed to have the desired effect.

Last Tuesday, Facebook user Lim Sheng Chieh posted a photo of a tiny green helmet, explaining that many of his grandfather's chickens on his farm had recently been killed by falling durians. His solution was to attach tiny helmets to the chickens, and he included a photo of one of the farmed fowl with one strapped on.

Unfortunately, he wrote that his efforts were fruitless, as he shared a photo of one of the fowl flattened by the smelly, spiked fruit. The post soon gained 3,700 likes, 5,700 shares, and 3,700 comments.
