I would hope the reviewer would reject the report as the description
doesn't comment on leg color or call. "Both sexes can be distinguished from
feral chickens by gray instead of yellow legs. The wild male’s crowing is
hoarse and choked off towards the end, unlike the loud, vibrant calls of
the domestic rooster."
;-)
This video captures the intelligence of the Red Junglefowl (leucistic
version) - note the yellow legs.
