Shoebill
With an approximately 1.2-meter body
and weighing approximately five
kilograms, shoebills are birds that are
large indeed. They have huge beaks
and are known to be able to remain
almost completely still for hours when
taking aim at their prey. They live in
marshy areas of eastern and central
Africa or in neighboring prairies. They
eat fish, frogs, and snakes, and although
rare, they also eat small animals such as
young water birds as well. They are
excellent at flying and possess a
wingspan measuring approximately two
meters.
The scale of this papercraft is
approximately 1/4 of the original size
of a shoebill.
