Finding the Cucco!

The cucco features in many Zelda games, from A Link to the Past to Majora's Mask. They are white chickens which peck delightfully and flutter around without a care in the world. When provoked or attacked with a sword (or any weapon, for that matter), they will screech and summon more cuccos to attack you; they can even kill you if you are not careful. This is sometimes known as the Cucco's Revenge Squad. While carrying a cucco, Link can jump and use the cucco to glide. This technique is known as Chicken gliding.

Interestingly enough, cucoos are an extinct species of birds that were considered a delicacy in ancient Babylon. Cucoos appeared much like a conventional bird, but look more like chickens in the Legend of Zelda series.
