Lets compare the number of accidents that happen each year to humans that result in injury or death, and lets just restrict it to sports. Funny? That humans suffer from many more accidents involving the sports we created, and we're the ones with the large brains.
Birds don't play baseball, and there isn't anything in the evolutionary past to prepare them for flying spheres, or airplanes, or cars moving rapidly along a road (though some get the opportunity to learn that cars can be threatening). But then, I can't fly naked, in a dive at over 200mph without a parachute and expect to survive the landing, while there are birds that can do that without any training at all.
PETA...ugh.
