This Is Why Roosters CrowTo a certain degree, that’s true. Similar to other birds, roosters actually have an internal clock that helps them anticipate the sunrise. This internal clock was discovered by researchers at Nagoya University, in Japan, who found that, when exposed to light and darkness in 12-hour increments, a rooster could always anticipate the lit hours, crowing approximately two hours before the darkness period ended.
