    Trailer filled with nearly 3,000 dead chickens abandoned in Arkansas neighborhood

    A trailer full of thousands of dead or nearly dead chickens was found abandoned in an Arkansas neighborhood, local authorities said Wednesday.

    Roughly 3,000 chickens were left to die inside the trailer, which was located in a secluded part of a Pine Bluff neighborhood, Jefferson County Sheriff?s Major Lafayette Woods told Fox News on Thursday.
    ...
    Authorities have identified the driver of the trailer and said the birds came from Summit Poultry Inc., located in Pine Bluff. Officials believe the chickens were sent to Oklahoma to be euthanized before they were brought back to Pine Bluff and found in the neighborhood. It's not currently clear why the birds were euthanized out-of-state.

    ?We?re still trying to find out why the chickens were left in the neighborhood,? Woods said, adding that whoever left the trailer "chose the location for coverage and concealment."
