I once read about an Australian pharmaceutical company that used pigeons to
sort pills, conditioned to hit a button when they saw one of the right
color. Supposedly the ASPCA had them replace the pigeon with a human.

This is almost certainly an urban legend, since a real manufacturing process
would not be allowed mix pills.
