Summary

[edit]
Description
English: Cock Fighting, Borneo.
Cock fighting is a favourite amusement of the Sea Dayaks, or Ibans, who name their cocks after the bird or insect which their plumage resembles. The cocks are tried first without spurs, and are, if they show courage, afterwards fitted with them. The owners hold them face to face with one another, as shown in the illustration, and release them when they show, by the ruffling of the feathers on the neck, an inclination to fight.
Deutsch: Hahnenkampf auf Borneo, der eine beliebte Unterhaltung der Seedajak oder Ibaner ist. Die Eigentümer halten die Hähne einander gegenüber und lassen sie los, sobald sie durch das Sträuben der Hals-federn ihre Neigung zum Kampfe zeigen.
