10 Wild and Wacky Ostrich Facts!
To top off this incredible month, we’re featuring 10 fun and pun-tastic ostrich facts to celebrate these feathered speedsters!
- Ostriches may not fly, but they sure know how to take off—running up to 60 mph! Faster than some cars in a school zone!
- One ostrich egg = 24 chicken eggs—that’s one egg-stra large omelet!
- Forget forks and knives—ostriches swallow pebbles to help grind their food. Talk about a rock-solid diet!
- They have the biggest eyes of any land animal, perfect for keeping an eye on the competition.
- No head-in-the-sand here! That’s a total myth—ostriches are too smart for that nonsense!
- Ostriches have only two toes per foot, making them the most efficient runners in the bird world.
- An ostrich kick can be deadly! If they enter a talent show, sign them up for kickboxing!
- Ostriches live up to 50 years! That’s a long time to wing it through life.
- They make deep, booming calls—think of them as nature’s original bass speakers!
- Ostriches don’t sweat—they open their wings to cool off! Wing-spreading: the original air conditioning.
