Authorities have requested the Animal Welfare League of Arlington's help after spotting the chicken which attempted to enter one of the most secure buildings in the world.
The chicken went viral after the news about it emerged on the internet. Hundreds of MEMEs and jokes were shared online where some people called it the bravest on earth for trying to sneak into the Pentagon.
“Agent C in the house,” one person commented. Another person said that he prefers to call the chicken as ‘Mata Henri.’

After being caught, the feathery-brown chicken was eventually taken into custody by one of the league’s staff members. Moreover, the spokesperson Chelsea Jones also refused to determine the exact place where the chicken was found for “actual security reasons.”
The chicken was called Henny Penny because it is one of the names given to the chicken at the center of a well-known folk tale.
