Did you know that:

Is this true? Or have I made it up?
You tell me..... How do we know the information we read is true?

  1. Yes an ostrich eye is bigger than its brain because the eyes are so big there is no room for a bigger brain. From Bryanna

  2. Wow! Thanks Bryanna! I wonder if they are very clever birds or if they may someday become extinct like the Dodo?

    Has anyone else found any information about an ostrich's brain and eyes?

  3. Please make sure you say what source you found your information from, e.g. Book, person, google search etc.
    We need to make sure we always question what we read.

  5. me again I know that a ostrich brain is smaller than its eye because my mum told me and I read about it at http://animals.howstuffworks.com/birds/ostrich-facts.htm I know this is true because people dissect animals to learn about them. I don't think they will become extinct because they run really fast and they have been around for millions of years. Bryanna

  6. Thanks for sharing that web site Bryanna. I am going to have a look at it, it likes fun!

    Does any Ostrich actually bury it's head in the sand? Seems like a strange place to put your head.

    Has anyone got any ideas?
