Photogravure 39. HYBRID JAVAN JUNGLEFOWL IN ITS AERIAL 



BAMBOO CAGE . . . . . . Facing page 262 



Photograph by William Beebe. 



The hybrid Junglefowl are sometimes valued as high as six hundred gulden. The chiefs and 

 wealthy natives erect a very tall bamboo pole in the compound, with a primitive sort of pulley near 

 the top. The fowl in its basket is attached to a rope and pulled up, high above all the surrounding 

 trees, to remain throughout the day, sending forth at frequent intervals its loud, piercing scream. 

 It begins its call even while the basket is whirling around on its jerky ascent.
