chicken leg
Chicken is the most common type of poultry in the world. Owing to the relative ease and low cost of raising chickens—in comparison to mammals such as cattle or hogs—chicken meat (commonly called just "chicken") and chicken eggs have become prevalent in numerous cuisines. Chicken can be prepared in a vast range of ways, including baking, grilling, barbecuing, frying, and boiling. Since the latter half of the 20th century, prepared chicken has become a staple of fast food. Chicken is sometimes cited as being more healthful than red meat, with lower concentrations of cholesterol and saturated fat.The poultry farming industry that accounts for chicken production takes on a range of forms across different parts of the world. In developed countries, chickens are typically subject to intensive farming methods while less-developed areas raise chickens using more traditional farming techniques. The United Nations estimates there to be 19 billion chickens on Earth today, making them outnumber humans more than two to one.

chicken leg
A chicken leg is the lower part of the bird, specifically the section between the knee and the ankle, often used for food in many cultures. It consists of two parts - the drumstick which is the part of the leg closer to the body of the bird, and the thigh, which is the upper part of the leg. It is rich in flavor, higher in fat, and usually served baked, fried, grilled or in soups. It can be eaten with or without the skin and bone.
