I recently learned some fun facts about ostriches𓅦.
Did you know they're the largest birds in the world and can run up to 45mph💨?
And they have the biggest eyes of any land animal! 👀

That's 28k kmph. Could have been 21, missed opportunity...
Lol that would be funny. followed 🤙🏻
So there's a myth about them burying their heads in the sand when afraid of predators that apparently dated back to Roman times. The strange thing is there are alot of pictures of ostriches with their heads buried. Most likely, it's from ostriches turning buried eggs with their beaks.

Biggest eyes compared to the head's size, i guess.
45mph totally mental though
