Yeah, they act just like cows that got loose.

That was part of the plan as they were becoming a traffic hazard. A
few of them became somebody's dinner but most of them fled deep
into the bush where they belong.

      Title: Chicken Aux Gros Oignons
 Categories: Cajun, Chicken, Chilies, Corn, Mushrooms
      Yield: 8 Servings

      1    young hen, about 4 lbs,
           -cut into serving pieces
    Salt and cayenne
    Flour
    1/4 c  Vegetable oil
      3 lg Onions, thinly sliced
      1 c  Chopped bell peppers
      1 c  Water
      1 c  Whole kernel corn
      1 c  Young peas
    1/2 lb Fresh mushrooms, sliced
      3 tb Chopped parsley

  Season the chicken generously with salt and cayenne. Lightly dust
  the chicken with the flour. Heat the oil in a large heavy pot over
  medium heat. Add the chicken. Saute it, stirring often, for about
  10 minutes, or until the chicken is browned evenly. Scrape the
  bottom of the pot to loosen any browned particles. Add the onions
  and bell peppers. Stir for about 15 minutes, scraping the bottom
  of the pan to loosen any browned particles. The onions should be
  soft and golden. Add the water and stir to mix well. Reduce the
  heat to medium-low and cook, partially covered for one hour, or
  until the chicken is tender. Stir occasionally. If you wish to add
  the corn, peas and/or mushrooms, add them now and cook for about
  15 minutes, or until all is heated through. Adjust seasonings. Add
  the parsley and serve immediately over rice.
