where can you find peruvian pelicans
BELMONT â The Bronx Zoo is going to the birds. Four Peruvian pelicans, one of the world's heaviest flying birds, were added to the zoo's Russell B. Aitken Sea Bird Colony, which also contains aquatic fowl like flamingos, penguins and storks. The pelicans, which weigh more than 15 pounds and eat mostly fish, are usually found on South America's west coast, from central Peru to southern Chile.
