Very interesting, Newt, thanks for sharing that.

 

My neighbor has a run-full of similar, but smaller, beasts.

 

He calls them bantams, but I wonder what they really are......we feed them whilst he is away, and you need to enter the run with caution !

It has been said that the raptors that went around in pack form were actually giant chickens. The ‘Wish bone’ on a chicken being its front legs at one point a bit like our tail being a coxis now.

The birdy equivalent of front legs/arms are of course the wings. All the same major bones that you would find in a human arm are present in the wing of a bird - even a flightless bird with only vestigial wings like an Emu.

There isn't a Furculum (Wishbone) in mammalian anatomy but the equivalent would be the clavicles or collar bones - although in birds they're fused together.

LOL....It sort of makes a horror movie in Jurassic park to a comedy about chickens...

 

I worked on a market stall in Jerusalem for a while selling live chickens. We had to go into the chicken sheds at night quickly and go in get the things by the legs put them in cages and trottle off to Jerusalem. I always liked the way they left a burnt out British tank on the way up the hill just to remind us brits who we were to them, ever so nice of them to greet the British tourist in such a manner...LOL

Anyway...

When we turned the lights on any chicken that had fallen ill was literally picked to the bone by the others. It was literally a free for all so maybe your average chicken is not so sweet after all. It made piranhas look like a nice bunch of fishies
