Crocoduck

Suchoavis mockery (Crocoduck)

The crocoduck is a species of large (pelican sized) of opposite bird that lives in New Zealand. It is notable not only for resembling the argument of two creationists but also for being a freshwater opposite bird when freshwater niches are held almost exclusively by Neornithes. It is believed that this is possible because of its specialized niche. The crocoduck is an ambush predator that feeds almost exclusively on other birds. It spends most of the day underwater with only the nostrils above the water surface. When a bird reaches the water it lunges towards it, killing instantly with its bone crushing bite. The crocoduck is reluctant and clumsy when air born, although they can still fly well enough to have reached the near bye Chatham Islands.
