Jet engines are specifically designed and tested to survive bird strikes during flight; during certification, engineers use a chicken cannon to fire bird carcasses at spinning engines at hundreds of miles per hour, and the powerful fan blades shred the bird and toss it into the bypass duct away from the engine's core, ensuring the engine either continues running or shuts down safely without exploding.
