Monique might be the world's most widely travelled hen (母鸡). She has sailed around the world with Guirec Soudée, a French sailor, for five years.
Soudée's trip began from his hometown in France. Before crossing the Atlantic Ocean, Soudée stopped in the Canary Islands. There he met Monique; it was given to him by some friend. His plan was to have the hen for company and fresh eggs.
People warned him that a hen wouldn't lay eggs at sea because it would be too anxious. However,Monique laid an egg on her first day on the boat and then laid 25 eggs in 28 days. "Monique and I became very close. I talked to her every day, and I knew she understood me," Soudée says. "I taught her how to swim, and we shared everything together.
"Soudée and Monique finished their 51,000-mile journey around the world in December 2018. On the trip there were some frightening moments. Their boat overturned in 13-metre waves near Antarctica; on Greenland they were stranded (滞留) in the ice for 130 days, 70 of which were in darkness. Soudée couldn't fish because of the ice, and Monique's eggs saved him.
Soudée has written a book called The Hen Who Sailed around the World: A True Story. "We've got lots of plans," Soudée says. "I want to get a bigger boat and hopefully Monique will have some chicks (小鸡) and then we can take them too. "
