A little boy climbed the wall into the temple mischievously and stole fruits. He was caught by the abbot and given a stern scolding. He ran home crying and called his father. His father, known as a tough guy in the area, quickly came to meet the abbot and grumbled:

"Hey, why did you scold my son?"
"Mischievous, mischievous, a monk has never scolded anyone."
"Then why did you hit my son?"
"Mischievous, mischievous, a monk has never hit anyone."
"This guy, if you hit my son, why don't you admit it? If you're good, fight with me."
"Mischievous, mischievous, please invite the referee, a monk has never backed down from anyone."

The frog in the field said to the frog on the roadside: "It's too dangerous for you here. Move over to my place."

The frog on the roadside replied: "I'm used to it here. Why bother moving houses?"

A few days later, the frog from the field visited the frog on the roadside, only to find it crushed by a passing car.

Follow sincere advice and don't let your laziness harm yourself.

Why is Kauai of Hawaii nicknamed the "Chicken Island"?

Kauai, known for its lush landscapes and pristine beaches, gained its fame due to its invasion by feral chickens. These wild chickens have been living on the fourth largest island of the Hawaiian archipelago for over a thousand years, and their presence has become an integral part of local culture, with gift shops brimming with symbols related to them.

The wild chickens you see on the island today are a mix of ancient breeds brought by Polynesian settlers about a millennium ago (resembling the red junglefowl, a cousin of the Southeast Asian junglefowl domesticated about 8,000 years ago) and later introduced domesticated chicken breeds by European colonizers. This hybridization has led to the emergence of new chicken breeds possessing characteristics of both domestic and wild chickens.

However, the chicken population on Kauai has exploded in recent decades due to several factors. Hurricanes Iwa in 1982 and Iniki in 1992 destroyed many backyard coops of residents, releasing them into the wild. Additionally, in the state of Hawaii, all wild bird species are protected under state law, including wild chickens. With no natural predators to control their numbers, except for dogs and cats, these chickens have thrived in the island's favorable environment. And despite being prohibited, tourists still feed them, contributing to their continued population growth.

Although they may seem harmless, local residents warn that these wild chickens can carry various diseases, so it's best to admire them from a distance and refrain from feeding them. As territorial animals, some individuals can be aggressive, capable of inflicting injuries with their sharp beaks and talons!

However, the troubles don't end there. For instance, all roosters crow simultaneously at dawn, which can be more annoying during vacations. These wild chickens also pose challenges to the lives of local residents as they easily invade gardens and wreak havoc on crops and ornamental plants. Furthermore, their presence affects the local ecosystem, and most car accidents are caused by them.

So how many wild chickens are there on this island exactly? It's difficult to give a precise number since wild chickens are not tracked or counted, but their estimated population is around 450,000, while there are only about 72,000 people living on Kauai.

Efforts to manage the wild chicken population here include fines for feeding them, efforts to control poultry reproduction, and trapping, but these measures have only achieved limited success.

According to archaeologist Dale Serjeantson at the University of Southampton, rice fields in Southeast Asia have played a significant role in the domestication of junglefowl.

In 2020, a genetic analysis of 863 chicken specimens confirmed that the subspecies Gallus gallus spadiceus, or the Myanmar junglefowl, is the ancestor of modern chickens; today's chickens share more DNA with Gallus gallus spadiceus than any other subspecies. Based on the research results, scientists can affirm that the domestication process occurred in Southeast Asia.

According to evolutionary biologist Greger Larson, even though chickens were domesticated later than other animals, chickens are still the most successfully domesticated species on the planet. The chicken population is now dominating humans at a ratio of 10:1.
