While visiting the zoo, I found myself fascinated by the flamingo exhibit. Their color and their interaction with one another caught my attention immediately.
Below are several interesting facts about the flamingo:
1. Their family is called Phoenicopteridae.
2. They are about four feet (1.2 meters) tall and have a wingspan of up to five feet (1.4 meters) and weigh between three and nine pounds (1.4 to 4 kg). They live 20 to 30 years and sometimes up to 50 years long.
3. There are six different types of flamingos that range from Africa to Europe to Asia to South America and the Caribbean. They live in shallow lakes, lagoons, swamps, and areas where the ocean mixes with fresh water.
4. Flamingos eat algae and insects and shrimp and mollusks (shellfish like clams and snails).
5. Other birds will sometimes eat their eggs or chicks. Cheetahs, jackals lions and leopards will hunt the lesser flamingo
in Africa.
Hope you enjoyed my interesting animal facts for the day.
