Chanticleer
A chanticleer is a rooster. The term was used as a proper name in medieval fables.
On the night of his arrest, Jesus predicted that before the chanticleer crowed, his disciple Simon Peter would deny Him three times (Matthew 26:34, Mark 14:30, Luke 22:34, John 13:38). As usual, Jesus was correct. This is the only New Testament pericope that features a rooster (alektor).
