A Video Of A Really Big Chicken Is Going Viral And It's Terrifying

New Delhi: Did you know that chickens are actually close relatives of dinosaurs? Seems a little unlikely, given how small and harmless chickens are, right? This video will convince you it's true. It's not a man in a chicken costume, it's not VFX - it's actually a gigantic chicken. And it's honestly pretty scary. The video, which has been doing the rounds of micro blogging site Twitter, shows a huge chicken exiting its coop and walking around the yard, happy as you please. You can also see another giant chicken hiding underneath the coop. So that's two giant chickens.

Watch the video that's going viral below:

So what's actually going on with the giant chicken? It's not a freak of nature, it's not a genetic mutation. As it turns out, big chickens do exist, and they're called Brahma chickens. They're also often referred to as the 'king of all poultry,' and we can see why.

The video was first posted on the Facebook page Shpeztaria Dekorative. From what we can gather, it seems like the chicken is named Merakli. On Twitter, people were understandably terrified of Merakli. Read some of the reactions below:
 

@LifesBook_Ceo When you see it at this size you can really imagine how they're the cousin of dinosaurs. Shit reminds of me of Jurassic park.
