Rheas appear to be quite neat birds. XD Along with ostriches, they certainly are quite unique in the present day.

Interesting pointer about the amount of toes both the Rheas and Ostriches have.

They are neat birds. I'd love to see some in the wild.

It would be neat to see these fellows in their natural habitat. Would be interesting to see their behaviour. XD

Afraid I haven't seen these guys IRL at all yet; our zoo just had ostriches. :| Maybe one day.

They have a cool running behaviour called gallivanting.

That sure is an odd running style. XD Though it does seem to run quite fast.



Does it look like this? A bit uncertain, but dang interesting way. :P
