The bow and shake is actually their courtship display when trying to find a mate, or to other Shoebills they are affectionate with. For humans, the bow pretty much translates to a display of respect and affection, which is why they always encourage you to bow back at them! So when a Shoebill does that in these videos, now you know what it means :-)

I like how docile and intelligent they are. Like any birds, they can be aggressive when provoked, but they seem to enjoy communicating with people they gel with. They are like elephants of birds.

what a beautiful bird

[@lindasillett9480]

I need more videos of this fascinating bird.. please 😊

[@Thunder0usKitsune]

Fun fact: these birds are so friendly that it is one of the main reasons why they are endangered. Their friendly personality towards people is what allows poachers to get close. When they bow and shake their head it’s a sign of greeting and respect and you have to respond with the same movement if you wanna be close to them/ interact with them. Beautiful birds…. Humans just take advantage of their easygoing behavior. Not only that but we destroy their habitat which is also leading to their decline. Not to mention that they only have 2 chicks at a time but only let the strongest survive (due to wanting to focus resources on a stronger chick rather than one that may never catch up)

[@fluffytail6355]

Sounds like the (now extinct) Dodo bird

[@Thunder0usKitsune]

@@fluffytail6355 nearly the same scenario as the dodos since they also had an easygoing/ friendly and curious behavior and we took advantage of that… people suck :P

Well if humans try they can also take care of them and help restore their lives by giving them proper food and shelter like these guys 👍🏻

I'm thinking they are endangered 😢

[@hadifelani]

Sadly, they're already categorized as a vulnerable species, just a single step away from being an endangered species.

[@GenericName_.]

In the wiki they categorized as vulnerable, first phase of threatened, pretty surprising because I thought it would go extinct in the wild or 3th phase of threatened

[@berthaalvarez1345]

I’ve watch this video a number o times!!! ❤❤❤❤❤❤ this bird is amazing to me… thanks our Lord for having an opportunity having a lovely soul in our world!!!
