Three years after a serious cerebral contusion a patient became delirious for a period of several months. During that time he pretended to turn into a cock. This theme is interpreted as a metaphorical expression rather than as a firm belief in a real metamorphosis. The feelings of strangeness considered as a matricial condition of delirious phenomenons are debated. Of first importance are the lesions of the right hemisphere upon which are often added more diffuse impairments of the frontal lobes and of the brain stem. The rarity of this phenomenon is to be emphasized whereas the references to animals seem to haunt human soul.
