Angkas, the ride-hailing service, offered the promo code “OSTRICH” after one of its riders, wearing the official helmet, was spotted in one of the viral clips. Filbar’s, the gaming store, used a photo of the ostrich for a fresh poster promoting its Jumanji merchandise.

The animal, according to the village association, is being kept by one of its residents. It has since been brought back to a “fenced property,” an official told ABS-CBN News, after photos of the ostrich being captured also circulated online.

People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals, or PETA, meanwhile offered to move the ostrich to a “sanctuary,” as it reminded the public that wild animals held in captivity are “invariably stressed” and are deprived of its natural “habitat and relationships.”
