Colonel Sanders versus PETA

CORBIN, Ky. (AP) - January 13, 2010

There are plans in Corbin, Ky., to put up a bronze statue of KFC founder Colonel Harland Sanders.

But that won't fly with the animal rights group People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals.

PETA has often protested KFC's chicken-raising practices.

PETA wants to put up its own statue, but made from chicken droppings.

No decision yet from city officials on whether PETA's poo-protest is a go.

Corbin was the location of the Colonel's first restaurant.
