    It's funny how they really look like mini versions of the adult ones. Here's a family in the wild:

    Full Ostrich family, Serengeti Too far away to be a good picture, but I for one had never seen baby Ostriches before. This scene has the father (left), mother (right), and 8 youngsters. The skull to the right is a reminder that we're in the Serengeti, and that this is a vulnerable time for the family.

      Interesting too is that they apparently urinate and defecate through the same orifice Posted 11 years ago
