About These Birds
Indian Peafowl
인도공작은 인도 아대륙 원산의 화려한 큰 새로 세계에서 가장 잘 알려진 새 중 하나이다. 수컷은 수백 개의 눈 모양 무늬가 있는 극적으로 긴 꼬리 깃털을 가지며 짝 유인을 위해 부채꼴로 펼친다. 인도의 국조이며 전 세계적으로 사육되고 있다.
Northern Fulmar
The northern fulmar is a long-lived seabird that can survive over 40 years. It defends its nest by projectile-vomiting a foul-smelling stomach oil at intruders, which can mat the feathers of predators and cause fatal loss of waterproofing. Fulmars have expanded their breeding range dramatically southward over the past two centuries.
