Animal of the Day!

Southern Ground Hornbill (Bucorvus leadbeateri)

(Photo by Andy Boyce)

Conservation Status- Vulnerable

Habitat- Central Africa; Southern Africa

Size (Weight/Length)- 6 kg; 130 cm

Diet- Small mammals; Reptiles; Amphibians; Fruits; Insects

Cool Facts- Being the size of a turkey, the southern ground hornbill is the world’s largest hornbill. While males and females are similar in size, only the male sports the brilliant red skin on their throat while the female’s throat is more indigo. Southern ground hornbills will eat any animal that is smaller than themselves, ranging from bullfrogs to small monitor lizards to hares. These hornbills live in small, family oriented flocks. Adult offspring will stay with their parents for up to ten years, helping to raise their younger siblings. By learning how to parent their siblings, southern ground hornbills are much more successful at raising their own babies throughout their sixty year lifespan.

Rating- 12/10 (Extremely successful captive breeding programs.)
