All God's Creatures Gotta Testify!

Earlier we talked about the Allah Fish, and now we have the Allah Chicken (h/t Little Green Footballs):
A cockerel in the Central Asian republic of Kyrgyzstan has saved itself from the pot after crowing what its owner claimed was “Allah”, the Arabic word for God.

The two-year-old rooster was set to be turned into chicken soup after its owner, Ibragim Ismatullayev, found it to be extremely aggressive.

However, Mr Ismatullayev has said that as he put the knife to the cockerel’s neck, the bird “screamed” and, on hearing this, his five-year-old son said “dad, it’s saying ‘Allah, Allah’.”

The sound of the cockerel was then recorded on a mobile phone, and its life was spared.

I saw and heard chickens galore in Kauai last month, but didn't hear any of them calling to their creator.
