  1. hoactzin

    The hoatzin is a tropical bird found in swamps, river forests, and mangroves in the Amazon and Orinoco basins in South America. Known for its distinctive appearance with a spiky crest on its head and striking blue-colored face, it is also notable for its unusual digestive system, which ferments plant material in its large crop, similar to a cow’s digestive process. Young hatchlings of hoatzin even have claws on their wings which disappear as they mature.
