[@steerpike]

Fantastic to see these Great Bastards thriving again

[@badgerbolloacks]

I live near Westbury and saw one of these fly past our garden like a Condor😯 then 3 weeks back I saw one in a field that was as tall as the hedge wtaf!!!!! Amazing birds👌🇬🇧

[@theshark2005]

that is amazing what a beautiful bird

[@tazataziri6629]

The great bustard in the brink of extinction because the greater bastard hunt them which is human

[@cosmobane6995]

"Great Bastard used to live happily in Great Britain until it was hunted to extinction" I cracked up

[@jerkerfridh8189]

They had the bastards sorted🤣

[@MrOtakugamer69]

Oh that's how you pronounce their name that is too damn funny lol!!!!

[@KathyMaKB]

They are beautiful. They reminded me a little of a Turkey puffed up like that.

Return of the king 🙌🏽

[@algladyou]

I wanna see it fly

[@jerkerfridh8189]

When I want to cheer up my daughters, I play this video. We laugh ourselves to tears. New little bastards hatching🤣 Who named this bird? (Yes, It is my real name)

[@farkaslaszlo9425]

This is Túzok ! The best Hungarian bird ! :)

[@maciekpaciarski9343]

they were popular in Poland

[@mesterigospodari5552]

@@maciekpaciarski9343 As a dish I presume...now they are extinct just like in Romania.

[@jennypockets]

So glad they're back. We've done enough damage. I wonder if we could bring our old chickens (they could fly properly) and pheasants back while we're at it.

[@tolitsdterrible4785]

I think it's only themselves that they're fooling with those costumes. Lol!

2:12 made me realize maybe the aliens play the same game to us humans when visiting planet earth 😁😁

[@nathandegner5187]

We must keep the busted birds from going extinct

[@sherlockbatmanholmes892]

They sound like the Dilophosaurous from Jurassic Park

[@h.e.floydiii7259]

The incubators just thrown in back the seats upside down and whichever way like: "These are crooked mate, want to level them up?" "NAHHH...WHO GIVES A SHIT" 😂😂😂

[@terrenusvitae]

Breeding by yourself isn't helpful, you need to do it with someone else.

[@blsabjflkdsafjb5768]

she says dehumanization suit, is there another name for them? cant find on google

[@GreatBustardGroup]

We call them dehumanisation ( or dehumanization ) suits as they disguise our human features - arms, legs and general shape and have colouring very different from humans. I am not sure what other people may call them.

[@maximme]

dont they remind you of Jurassic Park 1 ?

[@rhysddp1]

That’s what a Dilophosaurus sounds like

Bet they're good eating! At least Mr Fox will think so. And don't say they're to big.. I've seen a fox take goose!

[@davidwaters6222]

They can live to over 20 years, so some at Least would be vey tough eating. Foxes do not cause problems for adult Great Bustards, but as they do nest on the ground the eggs and young chicks are as vulnerable as other ground nesters. Great Bustard males are considerably bigger than geese, but even they reply on excellent eyes and rapid escape to avoid predation by foxes.

[@chuckymcchuckface8768]

@@davidwaters6222 Good to know.. Mr fox is very cute and as you say I'm sure he'll take plenty juveniles . I do hope the get a foot hold and once again we can see these magnificent birds..

Pooor birds , they have no chance against hawks and falkons in the air

[@hlessiavedon]

They are way too large for any hawk or falcon in Britain. Even the sea eagles would probably not go for them. They have not been domesticated at all, they are wild birds. They still have their anti-predator instincts.

[@stevej3297]

The only problem these birds have are guns
