HOME OF THE *CEYEON JUNGLEFOWL 
AtonG the coast of Ceylon, where the eucalyptus, acacias and mesquite abound, these Junglefowl are 
abundant. The region is park-like, the thorn-bushes and trees alternating with glades or larger open 
plains, dry and sandy, or with pools and grass. Here they must ever be on the watch for leopards and 
civet cats, and at night they sleep in dense foliage on lofty limbs, well out from the trunk, so that an 
enemy approaching along the branch would at once be detected.
