Wild chickens find the most ironic place to look for food
The last place anyone would expect a wild chicken to go is on the grill of a BBQ. But that is exactly where these chickens can be found each morning. They roost in the trees each night near a family home on Santa Cruz Island in the Galapagos. At sunrise, the chickens and the rooster emerge from the trees and wander, looking for compost, bugs on the ground, and any food scraps that have been dropped.
These chickens have also learned that the food left stuck to the grill from last night's dinner is a tasty treat. They hop up on the BBQ to peck at the remaining scraps of food to the delight of the family that lives there.
Wild chickens roam freely on Santa Cruz Island. Many find their way onto the BBQ when it is hot. The chickens are an important source of food for many families here. But these chickens have captured the hearts of the two young girls who live at this home. They have named the chickens and they have made their father promise not to turn them into dinner. The names of the chickens are as amusing as their habit of climbing onto the BBQ. They are called Chicken With Rice, Chicken Soup, Chicken Stew, Chicken Nugget, Chicken Drumstick, and other food related names. The chickens will never understand the irony of their names or the good fortune they enjoy.
