The flightless ostrich is the world's largest bird. They roam African savanna and desert lands and get most of their water from the plants they eat.
Although they cannot fly, ostriches are fleet, strong runners. They can sprint up to 70 km. an hour and run over distance at 50 miles an hour. They may use their wings as "rudders" to help them change direction while running. An ostrich's powerful, long legs can cover 10 to 16 feet in a single stride.
