Sask. sledding chicken meets tragic end at hands of farmyard predator

A chicken once known for racing down the slopes with a little girl has gone to poultry heaven.

In February, a video of Lennon Poole towing her chicken, Chickyboo, while sliding down a hill on her family’s farm near Saskatoon went viral.

After the snow melted, Lennon continued hanging out with her poultry pal.

They would play on a pretend pirate ship. Sometimes, Lennon would hang a string so the chicken would have a place to perch while she was on her swing set.
