* One episode of ''WesternAnimation/TheBabaloos'' involves a(n apparently wild) rooster whose cries constantly wake up Kevin and his parents (who would rather sleep in past dawn). [[AnimateInanimateObject Alarm Clock]] is also annoyed because waking them up when they’d rather be asleep is ''his'' job.

* ''Series/ClarksonsFarm'': In season two, Jeremy buys roosters for the chicken coop on his farm. Predictably, they end up crowing at every sunrise and waking him up... which quickly irritates him due to sunrise happening at 4 in the morning. Over time, the crowing turns out to be more useful than expected, since it gives Jeremy more room to get to work on the farm.

* In ''Literature/TheBlackThiefAndTheKnightOfTheGlen'', the thief escapes the shape-shifting witches only because the cock crows.
* This trope is exploited in the UsefulNotes/{{Indonesia}}n folktale of Roro Jonggrang. In the tale, the brash Bandung Bondowoso asked Roro Jonggrang to marry him, and to prove his worth he set out to build 1000 shrines in a night with the help of his army of djinns. Roro Jonggrang, fearing that Bandung might succeed, asked the locals to pound rice on mortars and wake the roosters to crow, so that the djinns are fooled into thinking it's morning already and left. The same trope is also used in another folktale Sangkuriang.
