This fierce beauty is the Secretary Bird, a bird of prey from sub-Saharan Africa with killer kicks and iconic lashes

With legs built for speed and power, the Secretary bird hunts snakes by stomping them with a force of 195 Newtons, enough to kill in milliseconds.

Despite their raptor status, they hunt mostly on foot and can walk up to 30 km a day.

      yep, a secretary bird

      I low-key cried during that movie when the whale died. and when the cat was like stuck on top of the giant statue

      I was drunk AF though so that might be the reason
