      The jungles of India are of bamboos, canes, and other
      palms, very difficult to penetrate.         -- Balfour
                                                  (Cyc. of
                                                  India).

   {Jungle bear} (Zo["o]l.), the aswail or sloth bear.

   {Jungle cat} (Zo["o]l.), the chaus.

   {Jungle cock} (Zo["o]l.), the male of a jungle fowl.

   {Jungle fowl}. (Zo["o]l.)
   (a) Any wild species of the genus {Gallus}, of which several
       species inhabit India and the adjacent islands; as, the
       fork-tailed jungle fowl ({G. varius}) of Java, {G.
       Stanleyi} of Ceylon, and {G. Bankiva} of India.

   Note: The latter, which resembles the domestic gamecock, is
         supposed to be one of the original species from which
         the domestic fowl was derived.
   (b) An Australian grallatorial bird ({Megapodius tumulus})
       which is allied to the brush turkey, and, like the
       latter, lays its eggs in mounds of vegetable matter,
       where they are hatched by the heat produced by
       decomposition.
