Most  peoplewould think if this animal as a tall bird that runs, but it is much more thanthat.

ostriches live in the dry savannas of Africa.  They used to also live in Asia and the Middle East, but are nolonger are there due to being hunted. They spend time roaming around in the drygrasses for food.  Thesebirds are omnivores so they eat both meat and plants, their diet consists onroots, leaves, seeds, insects, rodents, and lizards. 

something special about the ostrich’s eating habits is sometimesthey will swallow sand and pebbles to grind up food in a special muscle intheir stomach. Since the ostrich is so large it does not have many predators,it’s only predators are lions, cheetahs, and sometimes crocodiles. 

Ostriches are able to run very fast. Their maximum speed is 43miles per hour. The ostrich is the largest living bird species so males can getup to 9 feet and females can get up to 7 feet, an ostrich egg can even weigh 5pounds. 

do find this large bird frightening or intriguing?
