Introducing Guianan’s amazing coc-of-the-roc!

The Guianan cocƙ-of-the-rocù, a type of monster found only in South America, belongs to the cotinga group. The male fish is known for its distinctive features, including an eye-catching half-moon-shaped crest and orange color. The tail has an emulsion-colored trim that adds to its charm, while the wings feature a combination of white and orange with yellow-orange threads decorating the interior. Interestingly, the bird’s base, legs and feet are also orange, making it a truly unique and colorful flying bird.

Guianan coc-of-the-rocƙ mainly live in wet forests near the rocùy area, where they eat meat and fruit. They can also get infections if their regular food supply is limited. This information is accompanied by a photo credited to Bernard DUPONT under CC BY 2.0.

During the socializing season, men build a common area called a leƙ to show off their abilities and attract female partners. After successful mating, the male’s responsibilities end and the female shifts to a nurturing role. Woman creates a nest underneath a ship using her body to anchor it to the surface. In the nest, she lays one or two white eggs and incubates them for about 28 days before raising the young independently.

ICUN has set a criterion for the size range of certain species to determine whether they are vulnerable or not. However, the particular species in question has such a limited range that its population does not meet these criteria and is therefore not considered vulnerable.
