DON GALLO CATÉDRAL
DON GALLO CATEDRAL
Sacerdote de su casa
curita de capilla
don Juan de fiestas
El caballero es modelo en el hogar
buen padre y amante esposo
cumplidor rey en su comarca.
Curita de la calle amante de varias
hijos sin nombre con palmaditas idénticos
sumiso lacayo servicial domesticado pollito.
Visitante inagotable de las casas secretas
a todas las doncellas llena de gemas y dádivas
billete generoso a los placeres de almíbar.
Jefe supremo del respetable hogar
señorón querendón y fraterno consejero
ejemplo de familia liderando la sociedad.
Compadrito de milagros y bautizos
jarano de fiestas patronales, padrino con monedas doradas
con las alas abiertas hasta el coraje de madrugada.
Cuita de secretos de alcoba
sepulturero del placer jalea de hirviente sopón
corona a las pombas de caricias perfumadas.
Sacerdlote, cura, don juan, tres insignias
del gallo cantor de pico a pico juega el palenque
si entierra pico gallo asado cresta cae.

Leipoa is a genus of two species of Megapode, one living, and one extinct - the Malleefowl, L. ocellata, and the Giant Malleefowl, L. gallinacea. The genus first appears about 2.6 million years ago, in the Gelasian age of the Pleistocene, and today lives on in the smaller Malleefowl. Both species in this genus live in Australia; the Malleefowl known from the Murray-Murrumbidgee Basin, the Simpson Desert, and the southwest corner of Western Australia. It lives, indeed, in many Important Bird Areas, where it often breeds in its characteristic mounds.
By Scott Reid on @drawingwithdinosaurs
The Giant Malleefowl, L. gallinacea, is known primarily from the deposits in Darling Downs and Chinchilla in Queensland, the Wombeyan Caves of New South Wales, and notably in Komatsu Cave in South Australia as well. Known from fossil remains as well as eggshells, it was much larger than living Malleefowl, and sexually dimorphic as well. They could weigh anywhere between 4 and 7 kilograms, and it was basically just a normal Malleefowl but scaled up and, thus, more robust. Still, despite its huge bulk, it could probably fly, due it its strong keel. It laid its eggs in warm sand and soil, in the shape of a mound.
By Kerry Raymond, CC BY-SA 3.0
Malleefowl today are vulnerable to extinction, primarily due to the introduced red fox, as well as habitat fragmentation and destruction, as well as frequent drought from climate change. A shy, solitary bird, they only fly to escape danger, and to find trees for roosting. Breeding pairs roost and feed apart, and really only socialize to mate; in the winter, the male scrapes a depression in the ground with his feet, and then collects leaves and sticks to fill it in the early summer. He builds it into a nest mound, and after it rains, he mixes the material so it will decay. He then builds a little egg chamber in the middle of the rotting vegetation. THe female will then lay eggs at the beginning of the summer, and then more soil is added on top to regulate the temperature. They do mate for life, weirdly enough, and the males defend the nests, though the hatchlings are not taken care of by the parents. Upon hatching, the chicks will pop out of th enest with no warning, take a deep breath, and then freeze for up to 20 minutes, before leaving quickly and disappearing into the scrubland. Truly, one of the weirdest, most unique adaptations of any dinosaur group.

Sir, what are the names for the different types of meats in Old Cyrodiilic? Is there a word for the Bosmer unthrappa in the ancient form of our language? - Rafaello Flavius
The names of a few different types of meat in Old Cyrodiilic are as follows: pork is called porcina, beef is bubula, the meat of the chicken is called gallinacea, and lamb is agnina.
The Bosmer word unthrappa is usually left untranslated, rendered as a first declension feminine noun, but perhaps a more accurate name would be humana.
