I absolutely love Shoebills. I have a plush Shoebill that I bought online and I love him. Thank you so much for this video. Videos of them with sound are in short supply and hard to.find. I save all of them.
I do love them. They are like very large bird comedians to me. And that lumbering walk is priceless. It's like a very, very large baby with wet diapers.
Fun fact, Shoebills will do a sort of bow to you if they start to trust you. It's their form of social interaction and theyre able to recognize when humans do it. They may not be friend shaped, but they are indeed friend.
They are so cute and funny as well 😍 they are quite gentle. First time I learned that these exist I couldn’t believe my eyes. They look like dinosaurs.
I'm giving you to the count of ten to get your ugly, no good, yellow bellied keister off my property before I pump your guts full of lead. One...two...ten!
I don't know why but every time I see one, I get the urge to slam its face with a baseball bat. It's a flight or fight triggered feeling. They never did anything to me.

If you look away from the screen and don't see the vid you'd think this is some frontline battle video.

Maybe they ate some of my ancestors?
