That bird could replace sentries and scare off burglars. Just have to fire gunshots near it...

Tool for not doing your research. The lyrebird is an absolutely amazing creature able to mimic practically any sound it hears. It's so famous for this ability that the beatboxer Beardyman jokingly cited it as inspiration.
