How domestic poultry adapts to survive systemic collapse
In short: This documentary examines the extreme adaptability of chickens, tracing their transition from managed livestock to self-reliant survivors in environments ranging from closed-loop farms to volcanic cliffs.
The film explores the genetic and behavioral mechanisms that allow poultry to endure extreme conditions. It follows Curtis Wagoner in a Missouri compound, where he manages a closed-loop protein system, and looks at the volcanic cliffs of Kauai, Hawaii. In the latter, winds surpassing 170 mph during cyclones have caused domestic poultry to return to a feral condition.
