A Wonderful Bird Is The Wallarooster (1932)

Australia. M/S of a Wallaby and a Rooster in a farmyard pen. Various shots of the cockerel who jumps around like a kangaroo - apparently because it was raised in the same pen as the wallaby. Another strange duo of animals is seen - a cockatoo and a cat who sit in the same cage together. The cockatoo snuggles up to the cat who doesn’t seem to mind. FILM ID: A VIDEO FROM BRITISH PATHÉ.
