Marabou Stork
Leptoptilos crumeniferus
These birds have no voice box and are therefore mute. They communicate by clattering their bills loudly.
They are the largest of all storks, weighing 11 pounds with a wingspan of 8.5 feet.
Because their "military" gait and "pompous" bearing reminded British Colonial troops of their adjutants, marabou storks are also known as "Adjutant Storks."
They can live up to 40 years in captivity. |
