weigh as much as 250 pounds. Even though they have wings, they cannot fly. Instead, ostriches have
long, powerful legs that help them to run very fast when they feel threatened. Ostriches use their
wings to move themselves forward and to help them change direction.
 Ostriches are native to Africa, where they still live in desert areas and dry, open grasslands called
savannah. Ostriches can also be found in zoos all over the world. Humans have domesticated
ostriches, so now ostriches live on farms in over a dozen countries, including the United States, China,
India, Japan, Brazil and Costa Rica. They are raised for their meat, skin, and feathers.
Ostriches like to live in small groups called herds. The male ostrich is called a rooster; the female, a
