These giant birds are found in the wetlands of Eastern Africa. Their crazy diet consists of fish they find in the swampy areas they regularly hunt in; this can range from catfish to lungfish, but their diet doesn’t stop there. They will also hunt animals like the Nile Monitor lizard to baby crocodiles.
