Hi !

I’m Bald Ibis

I’m also named as Northern Bald Ibis,

Hermit Ibis, Waldrapp…

Kelaynak, Geronticus Eremita...

See, I’ve got a lot of names! However, my amount is not so many...

About 500 in the wild…

…and 1500 in captivity.

I live in semi-deserted, or …

rocky habitats…

not always close to running water...

Like Souss-Massa National Park

in Morocc

o…

…in central Syria…

and Birecik in Turkey.

I eat insects, lizards,

snails, beetles, worms,

ants, small snakes and

scorpions...

What made me less and less then???

Well...

Loss of steppe or agricultural areas… dramatic changes in our habitat…

massive pest poisoning in the fields…

hunting… and …disturbance…

all by you human beings.

Oh,No! No! No!.. I’m

not an enemy to you

I’ll keep on

wiping out the

varmints for you.

Till The End
