Police said the bird would only be a risk to people if it was cornered, adding that male rheas were the more aggressive birds. |
Ostriches, emus, cassowaries, rheas, kiwis, moas and elephant birds really are more closely related to each other than they are to any other birds. |
Because rheas walk almost continuously while foraging, we considered that they were walking instead of foraging only when the head was above the body while walking. |
Aside from the salary he receives from the foundation, Carlinhos has a pet shop and a farm close to the city where he wants to retire to raise rheas and capybaras. |
Unlike the similar-looking ostriches, the head, neck, and thighs of rheas are feathered. |
However, for rheas living in subtropical areas, nest attention could also avoid egg temperatures increasing up to lethal level for embryos. |
