Cannibal Chicken Scare

While Europe worries about mad cows, Greeks also are enduring another food scare: cannibal chickens.

Police confiscated 9,000 chickens Tuesday and ordered their destruction. Police are looking for 1,000 more from a hatchery where starving birds fed on one another.

No one has reported any ailments linked to eating the chickens.

But because the birds ate rotting flesh, experts said, people might contract salmonella and other poultry diseases by eating them.
