Hes Scary.....
Non conosci il nome del volatile in italiano? Vorrei cercarlo su RUclips, mi ha incuriosita molto grazie comunque buona serata 🙄😘💕💖💋
@@MikeAGarza scusami non ti capisco ma ti ringrazio per la tua disponibilità 😍💋💖
L'ho trovato ho capito come si kiama grazie mille TVB ciao a presto 😍😍😍💖💋💋💋👍👍👍
Better manners than people at Walmart
😂😂
I never laughed this hard with the Walmart comment. Some people at Walmart may be unfriendly but thy are not rude
😂🤣🤣 yo
@@1brickrow I beg to differ
😂😂
These things terrify the living shit out of me but the bow and shake is adorable
I like the sound it makes
Ik.. The bow is nice, but the look they give when they stare at you is otherworldly, freaks me out
You have a weird name
Then look up the terror bird and yoy will have nightmares
They should they are directly related to the rex family which includes the indominus rex
Absolutely incredible bird. Hopefully it's species will not become extinct.
No
@@Bruh-cb7tw no what
@@wolfie3657 just no
It will if it has its way. They kill off their own babies by forcing them to fight each other for survival. It’s their own dang fault for being crappy parents. Why can’t they just raise all the chicks like normal birds?
@@azuroslazuli6948 if you look at biology/evolution its usually because there's a fight for resources, so its easier to give more time and food to one than both. Its messed up but lots of birds do it.
Can't believe I'm 53 years old and still seeing animals I never knew existed. Thanks!
@LunarJim69. Ain't that the truth?! I'm 70, and would STILL not know if not for RUclips videos.
I'm 115 years old
ahahah same here
I'm 65 and never knew that bird existed. But no one will ever get to see every creature that exists. It's great that life will always have mystery.
What a beautiful thing about life huh?
When I was a kid, I though this bird was just a CGI product, but now I know it's real. Truly magnificent creature
I totally get that. They don't look real.
it looks evil to me! creepy eyes and creepy stare.... at least they don't attack humans like the emu does!
When I was a kid, cgi looked like toystory that was made on a commodore 64.
I would be honored to bow to this bird. Not in servitude but because of the simple communication that would open him up to me. So very beautifully cool.
not in servitude, lmao! As if you can become it's squire or something.
but I still agree.
@@RBZ-1 I was trying to clearly state that bowing down to A BIRDS LEVEL was not a show of worship, rather just getting g to birds eye level. You have got to admit that saying the word "bow" is in line with "taking a knee" and therefore I would get a response like "oh look, she "worships" a bird.
Glad you agreed.
Lol
agree
I'd worship him.
These birds need to be protected at all times and taken care of.
Absolutely
I don't ever want to live in a world without these beautiful creatures
More like terrifying lol.
Likewise. We should be doing more to preserve them.
I totally agree. Just wow.
Will you kill yourself if they go extinct or what?
I agree but it's really just horrific what they do to their young.
I would absolutely bow to this beautiful majestic bird ! It makes me so angry that only 14 are left in the wetlands, that’s just so tragic for such a beautiful animal !
Please don't let them become extinct
Such a beautiful bird probably a lot to reach us
SAVE THE SHOEBILL
Shoebill: " hmm some of my ancestors used to eat some of your ancestors but you seem nice. Give me fish please."
actually his ancestors disappeared way before our ancestors showed up
@Mazxj Stripes uhh, technically we all life has the same ancestor but that isn't what people mean when they talk about ancestors of different species. It doesn't include common ancestors nor ancestors that are unrecognizable to the current species.
@@reginaphalange9417 😂😂 I realized what your sn was while watching Friends on HBO Max.
@Mazxj Stripes either playing dumb or it's not an act
@@reginaphalange9417 paxwallace is referring to dinosaurs and mammals.
Awww, what a noble and polite dinosaur. ☺️
An incredibly beautiful bird.
Thank you!
Sass mate
When you are welcomed by this bird, you are also a friend. They will allow you to visit their nest and see their babies. It’s quite amazing.
Ah that's lovely 😊 such a beautiful bird❤
But they hate their babies. Except the strong one.
I really hope this amazing bird doesn’t go extinct
me to i love them i want one
I don’t know why so many think this bird looks scary. It’s really pretty cute.
I think it's a primitive recognition of a predator. I know it doesn't eat humans, but it's ancestors sure could have...
For sure!
@@lemonlime8915 I think it’s adorable.
His eyes look angry from the front?
To me they don't quite look real, abit like a puppet or something. As I'm learning about them, despite their scary look, they seem relatively friendly and the fact that you have to bow to them to be accepted is kind of cute.
We as humans just can't get it right.... we endanger everything from our reefs to our animals to our air & forests, even bees !!! Will we ever learn?
No, unfortunately. It is easier to and cheaper to do the wrong thing.
That’s been happening for less than 100 years. It’s not been happening for long enough for us to realise and correct our mistakes. You can’t just drastically change massive systems without caused major damage to the world economy.
We will learn when we get extinct
@@jupiter8512 If we do, it'll be too late.
Oh, for goodness' sake. Humans are the only ones who can help such creatures!
This bird got more manners then most humans. The bowing is cute n he does it back aww
What a glorious and prehistoric looking bird/dinosaur!
I sincerely hope this unique bird does not go extinct...
If they are really down to only 14 of these amazing birds, it might be in their best interest to have a professional group of animal lovers to give those remaining birds a place to mate and raise the actual numbers of these gorgeous angels so that future populations can enjoy their presence! ❤
It will take awhile for the population to grow also unfortunately. If I remember correctly, they will only raise 1 at a time and they pick their favorite and let nature take the other. At least if they bred in captivity more or less, humans can raise the one kicked out. 😢
I must say Skyward Sword 4K Zelda Loftwings look very impressive.
Whats up broham?!? Lol You know we already know about these birds.
I was gonna say they looked familiar for some reason.😅😂
It would be awesome if you could bring awareness to this endangered animal and set up a donation stream! As maybe a Zelda 35th anniversary commemoration?
@@jab2928 that would be great honestly.
@@jab2928 awesome idea! I'm in.
This shows dinosaurs are still roaming the earth.
Not for long
@@shinji1264 same for every living n non living. Time is a bitch
Ofcourse they r but evolved one:-)
@Canal De RUclips no wonder our chickens try to attack my sister
@Canal De RUclips one bit my grandma she smacked hin
I absolutly adore these birds, it’s always the sweethearts that go endangered
Because they're too trusting of people. I'm sure people feared these birds too without knowing anything about them and basically killed them off. It's disgusting. Many people believe everything on Earth is theirs to own and rights too even if it's another life.
yeah thats what i was thinking😢 i hate humans...
@@Plush-Freddys-Pizzaria A lot of humans really aren’t that intelligent , why do you think most of the world lives in poverty while the rich are only a very small percentage
I still can't believe this beautiful animal exists...it looks like a mythical creature
How polite and friendly, it's adorable
Wow. Hope you can pay his expenses: he comes with a big bill!
Edit: thanks, everybody. This was my very first RUclips comment.
Outstanding, sir.
Nice
Take my like
You are my new religion
OMG I hate you and love you.
They don't look real. They definitely look like a dinosaur.
They look like pokemon
It's honestly so surreal, it's freaking me out. I think it's because we've only ever seen anything remotely dinosaurian in the form of CGI, animatronics, art etc., so when we see something real that looks dinosaurian, it looks fake and uncanny because that's how we've been conditioned.
Because birds are the closest living relative to Dinosaurs just look at Ostriches and Cassowaries
@@JoJo-hm6xu Birds *are* dinosaurs. Just a little more "refined," if you will.
@@Shadow-In-The-East just smaller dinos roaming around freely
This is one kind of animal I'd gladly go out of my way to save from extinction. They're so pretty and intimidating at the same time, and so polite.
Shouldn’t you go out of your way to save every animal from extinction?
That's it in a nutshell. Funny aswell 😆 ❤
I’d definitely bow to this Shoebill bird. He’s gorgeous 🥰🥰🥰
The shoebill is my favorite animal ever
We love them also! They're simply incredible.
Wow, no other words. We must not loose these birds. First time I have seen one and I love them. Thank you for this.
What a magnificent treasure the Shoebill Stork is. I hope they're protected species. Beautiful.
I would absolutely bow to this bird.
Stunning beautiful prehistoric bird. Hope they will be more and save in their habitat
The shoebill stork is my absolute favourite animal. What a magnificent creature 💚💚💚 Thank you for all the good work you're doing in trying to preserve the beautiful wetlands in Uganda and helping the shoebill's natural habitat 🙏
He does look almost like something created for a movie. He’s amazing. I like the rapport he allows with humans. Maybe he appreciates being saved from this world but he’s very cool.
What kind of prehistoric memory and knowledge does that brain store... Incredible creature.
Something about seeing any bird makes you feel full of life. Hard to explain but I hope this bird sticks around🤙
Birds have the gift of flight, they have true freedom. We have some beautiful and majestic birds in Australia, this fellow is truly amazing. A living link to the past.
Beautiful bird. Unusual. Pray the people of Uganda protect this gem.
"After he was injured by locals who set fire to his home" - I love how this is worded, it makes it so much more relatable to humans.
Tell him I love him thanks
The w forming connection with human before becoming his next meal
Ahhh man I hope they don't go extint. They look so prehistoric! The fist time I saw one I thought it was fake. Amazing animals.
Truly amazing and beautiful bird! I would love to see one in person!!!
These animals are amazing! Bow, mimic and clap to approach them. Phenomenal. He know how special he is ♥️
I've seen one of these birds on another channel and she's absolutely beautiful to me, they're just beautiful cause they do look like they're a dinosaur. I'm glad that you're protecting these birds
It looks like an evil demon bird that quietly whispers in your ear telling you do bad things
Haha thanks
Whatever man
"Eat the wall Erica, just eat the wall. Do as I say. EAT. THE. WALL."
Bad things like "youre mom stinks" or "you are fat"?
And bow at You
Never seen a bird with so much respect.
If i had the ability to find one of these i would see it as a great honor to be able to bow to it.
Awesome stork and a big thank you to those who are helping to save these beautiful birds.
He actually behaves so much like Buck Beak of Harry Potter and looks so much like a dinosaur 😍 why are we losing these incredible species from our planet so fast?
Business as usual is why.
Animal agriculture
Stop having kids and reduce expansion of human habitat. That is the solution for every natural disaster and extinction of endangered species.
@@ratlakmin I'll leave the "stop having kids" part to people like you lol. Me not having kids isn't going to help a bird in Africa, and I shouldn't really care even if it did. That's up to Africans to stop the destruction of these birds. Don't know why it takes Europeans to preserve African animals.
@@c.odubhlaoich2948 lol I m not talking about one bird who lives in Africa I m refering to all endangered species around the world. As human population increases more deforestation for housing as a result animals loses their habitat.
There is no population control with humans .
I wouldn't need to be told to bow. I would do it by instinct. Look how ancient he looks. Respect!
I would bow from respect,🙏 shoebills are magnificent creatures with strong, gentle and subtle character, they are very intelligent, proud and also modest and humble, we can learn so much from these amazing birds, I love shoebills very much❤❤❤
I would definitely bow to this majestic creature..hope it's still there
I'll admit they look scary but then gentle too the way they reacted to the guys. They're awesome. ❤❤❤❤ We must keep these birds
#SaveTheShoebillStorks😮
This bird has a nice quiet hush personality, you don't really want to get it on its bad side.
Nature rules, we will learn that soon , the hard way...
Well you were right.... greetings from Italy
F F take care, Love Italy!!
Things are getting better luckily, but we need to change a lot to prevent things like that in the future. Stay safe!
This comment aged like milk lmao
the clownit1984 outbreak was totally lab-made
I am so enamored by this cutie. I'm keep finding him on the internet today. He's a perfect ambassador to save his species.
I didn't thought they were friendly to people, truly miracle of a bird.
I would absolutely bow to the shoebill. So cute! precious birb.
They are beyond magnificent!!! 🦖❤️
Wonderful bird! Just stunning!
I love how there is clear language between them.
They take my breath away...they look prehistoric, please protect them❤❤❤❤❤❤
Shoebill: tall, territorial, huge scary mouth, looks like a dinosaur that sounds like a machine gun AND you must bow to it in greating...
Humans: lets name this one sushi...
Probably a card carrying democrat
@@kevinduffy2502 or a inbred backwater republican
@@Shrimpfriedpee lol not... so Demoncrat of you to use someone else's joke.. couldn't think of anything else on your own now could you ?
@@kevinduffy2502 No reason to have brought that up. Avoid doing so in future cool animal videos.
@@ryanotte6737 I know I'm sorry I should have thought about that poor bird being tied to a card carrying Democrat
Pobrecito, que increible lo que hemos hecho los humanos con los habitats de los otros seres que habitan este planeta, todo destruimos, ojalá más personas como las del video, cuiden y valoren a todas las especies.
Its so awesome that this prehistoric species survived after all these years. I hope we are able to save them so that the species doesnt fade out.
A magnificent bird that recalls the time of the dinosaurs. A precious bird to be preserved.🦤😍❤️
I've been watching animal programs on TV since the 80s and this is the first time I've known about this bird.
This the bird the animators modeled for the Legend of Zelda Skywind.
Looks like they picked an obscure bird, hoping they could pass it off as an original design
The Shoebill stork is my favorite bird. So intriguing! I'm glad they are trying to save them from awful loggers and those who want progress!! Makes my blood boil at how many animals are encroached up in Canada too!
Wow a living prehistoric dinosaur bird, to bad the human race are trying to make them extinct. 😡
Hoho
#HumansSuck

Not just white people.
Decepticunt69 yea white ppl
pink friday🃏 imagine the animals that lived in Africa that got wiped out sad shit
Better manners than any human. I would consider it an honour to meet one up close like this. Bless
Shoebills are the sweetest cutest birds I have ever seen ❤ 💙 💜 💖 I love the way they demand respect wen meeting one.i 🙏 the world stands together and protects these amazing bird beings .Uganda is rich in having these birds grace there wetlands. So lucky they are .
if i got funding i would GLADLY run a rehab recue ranch for these big bois. i love how cool they look and how friendly they are.
I bet if u started to make a rehab people would pay you to support it.
How have I not saw one of these birds before , just beautiful ❤️
They look so tough and menacing. It's a shame that they are critically endangered.
I mostly like shoebill storks for being the most polite bird there is. They'll greet you with a bow and some applause and cheerfully return the courtesy to anyone who does the same to them as well.
This is the definition of uniqueness and amazing!
How have I never seen or heard of this bird before? Its so unique
Really rare
They're all dying
@@cosmicslushii1457 Hope not😢
I'm falling in love to this special bird... This is definitely my favorite wild animal ever! I hope one day I meet directly to this amazing creature..
It would be an amazing experience to see such bird in real life. It definitely looks prehistoric, dinosaurs 🦕 must have been quite the sight!!
Keep up the good work, it's heartbreaking to lose species. They don't deserve it. Thanks!
Fenomenal Ojalá que siga conservandose de generación en generación
Bless the beast and the children ....
I love nature and everything about it that is natural....
This bird needs to be saved it is so unique ....
Children and animals are paying the price of evil on this earth....
Creation is just to beautiful to be treated like it is nothing !
Crazy how they look so menacing but they're actually so friendly and chill.
Absolutely a magnificent endeavor, and the Shoebills are so precious. My best wishes to you and your Shoebill buddies!!!
Giff-Master
Absolutely stunning animal, we need to protect it at all costs
It would be such an honor to show him the great respect he deserves, and understands! Truly an amazing creature of God. We must save this wonderful species❣️Thank you for opening my world to see this video and to now know what his species is facing.❤❤
Such a beautiful bird so sad that there's not very many remaining in this world😪
I would love to see one of those in person.
Shoebill Stork: why should I hire you?
Human: 0:02
Shoebill Stork: when can you start?
That was incredible. My daughter just showed me this shoebill bird. I've never heard or seen it b4. TY for sharing
Love this big lanky dino bird! Here's to hoping more conservation efforts can continue to help protect the Uganda's wetlands and the shoebill storks!
They're BEAUTIFUL birds!
Magnificent birds and I've been lucky enough to see these birds in the wild in Uganda several times. It sad to hear, like so many animal species, that their habitat and numbers are in decline. Unfortunately we humans are slowly but surely destroying the planet and everything good in it.
A new angry bord is among us
Until now, I never knew these beautiful birds existed!🦕
Sushi has a very gentle disposition, these birds are usually highly aggressive, but he is very sweet.
Hmm. I've watched nature vid's my whole life= never seen this. I thought it was some animatronic joke, at first. CRAZY. What a unique sound they make too. Thanks for showing me this. I literally think I've seen almost all animals on earth and this one not only haven't I, but it's huge. It's not like some ant species I've never heard of.
