Ostrich

Ostriches are birds that appear in The Lion King franchise.
== Information ==
Ostriches live in sub-Saharan Africa, occuring in semi-arid habitats like savannas. They are the fastest bird on land and lay the largest eggs of any living land animal. Even with their wings, they are flightless birds and use their wings for courtship. Contrary to popular myths, ostriches do not stick their head in the sand; when it senses danger, it flops to the ground, its head blending into the sand. They live in groups of up to one hundred individuals and have an established social hierarchy.
Ostriches usually weigh from 139 to 320 pounds, with exceptional male ostriches weighing up to 340 pounds. The feathers of adult males are mostly black, with white primaries and a white tail. However, the tail of one subspecies is buff. Females and young males are grayish-brown and white. The head and neck of both male and female ostriches are nearly bare, with a thin layer of down. The skin of the females' necks and thighs are pinkish gray, while the males' are blue-gray, gray, or pink, depending on subspecies. The average ostirch egg is 3.1 lbs but the biggest one was 5 pounds.
