The Natural History of the Chicken

Most people best know the chicken from their dinner plates - whether as thigh, wing or drumstick. Consumers rarely pause a moment to consider the bird's many virtues. In The Natural History of the Chicken, filmmaker Mark Lewis (Cane Toads: An Unnatural History and Rat) expands the frontiers of popular awareness and delightfully reveals that this small, common and seemingly simple animal is as complex and grand as any of Earth's creatures.
