I loved this (slightly grumpy) curassow which despite being free to roam spent a lot of its time sitting right by the information sheets about it
I mean, yeah: I get you
Why be this magnificent and have people unaware what you are?

BOTD: Great Curassow
Photo: Croftylock
"The Great Curassow is a big bird, about the size of a domestic turkey, and is prized by local people for its meat. Overhunting and habitat loss have made this species quite shy. A good look at a male Great Curassow reveals a handsome bird with glossy black plumage and a crest of forward-curling feathers. This species is the largest and most northerly occurring of the mostly tropical curassow tribe."
