The Evolution and Biology of Junglefowl| The Origins of Domestic Chickens

Junglefowl are a fascinating group of animals from which the domestic chickens are descended. With their beautiful colours and distinctive calls, there is a lot more to these birds than you might suspect. Take a look as I dive into the four species of junglefowl, along with their domestic descendent. All pictures attributed to Animal Analytics were taken by me personally. A full description of all others can be found in the following document, along with notable scientific papers I used when researching this topic.
