MONTREAL - Montreal police are looking for a woman who shocked commuters by plucking and eating a raw bird on a moving subway train.
One disgusted passenger filmed the scene in the subway, known as the metro, and posted the video to YouTube. He said the incident took place on July 1.
The clip shows a young woman seated in the metro car and wearing a bikini top and miniskirt. She can be seen leaning over a plastic bag, taking small items out of it.
Several passengers who approach her are seen quickly walking away with looks of shock on their faces.
"I'm going to vomit," the man who was videoing the scene can be heard saying. Moments later he added: "And she's eating it! She's eating it!"
Montreal police are trying to find the woman, whose face can't be seen in the clip.
"We'll start by finding her, then doing an interview with her," police spokesman Manuel Couture told QMI Agency.
"Then we'll see if we'll go for psychiatric care, criminal (charges), or both."
There is no law against plucking and eating a raw bird in the metro, but Couture says the woman could still face criminal charges.
"Given that it visibly upset people, we consider it to be disturbing the peace," said the police spokesman.

Woman takes credit for plucking bird on Montreal Metro, stands by act

CBC – 16 hours ago

woman who was filmed plucking a bird on a Montreal Metro car is being identified as Christina David, a former resident of Nunavik who now lives in Montreal. The Nunatsiaq Online, a newspaper based in Iqaluit, Nunavut, first reported on a Facebook post in which David takes credit for the act.
A woman was filmed plucking a bird in a plastic bag by a fellow passenger, who posted the video to YouTube.
The video soon went viral and sparked an investigation by the Montreal police department’s transit division.
IOn Sunday afternoon, David told CBC News she didn't mean to offend anyone.
"I didn't know that it was going to affect any other people like that because in my culture it's completely normal," she said in a phone interview.
In the Facebook post, David expresses surprise at the media coverage and the video’s popularity.
“I'm famous … I can't believe it went this far,” she wrote.
In the comment thread under the post, David says she was so excited by the prospect of a traditional meal that she didn’t give much thought to her surroundings.
“It's not like we get to eat our country food everyday. I was so happy that I didn't care where I was at the moment but all I have to say is that I ain't crazy,” she wrote.
David said reports that she was eating the bird raw were false.
“People in the world are making rumours,” she wrote.
David said she was on her way home to cook a goose her aunt brought from their village in Northern Quebec and used the subway ride home to get a head start on preparing the meal.
"I couldn't wait. I only had one this year it's not like we get to eat our country food everyday it's very very rare that we can eat like we usually do up North," she said.
On Facebook she commented:
“But I didn't care. I was just ... enjoying [it] and on top of it I couldn't wait to go home so I can put it on the big pan with onions and mushrooms."
'A real Inuk for ever'
Comments from her friends also saw humour in the situation and expressed pride in David’s carefree embrace of her Inuk culture.
“I'm glad that you are so Inuk and I love you so much,” said one friend.
“Real true Inuk,” said another.
As to the police looking for her, David said she had been to court on Thursday but did not say if she was facing a fine.
In the end, David stood by her actions.
“I will never ever forget anything. I will always be a real Inuk for ever 'til I'm gone,” she wrote.

I can't tell from that video what's going on.

Society has worked pretty hard at changing how food looks. It no longer looks like the plant or animal it comes from by the time it gets to your house. Which makes it a bit of an odd thought that eating food that looked like what it was would be considered un-normal and offensive.

FFS she never ate the thing raw.

Inuit don't eat birds raw everyone knows that.

I was watching a vegetables being prepared the other day most offensive
A lettuce head was smashed with a huge knife and then chopped to pieces.
Ears of corn ripped from their husk and thrown into boiling water
how evil is that?
Vegetable genocide must stop
We mus pluck and rip apart live birds on the subway I suppose I'd rather see
a bird torn apart than see a potato get an eye plucked out
This is no big deal
