Why did the police of this city dress up as chickens

In an amusingly captivating attempt to advance pedestrian protection, a San Francisco police officer recently dressed in a striking, flashy, and blown-up chicken costume at the time monitoring a high-traffic crosswalk. Lt. Jonathan Ozol put on extravagant attire on Alemany Boulevard to bring to the attention the number of drivers failing to give way to foot traffic, regardless of being as obvious and noticeable as a massive chicken.
