The ostrich capable of draught and burden. The existence of live ostriches in almost every zoological garden of note has doubtless rendered the species so familiar to our readers, that any detailed description of its external appearance seems unnecessary. Suffice it to say, that its chief characteristics are a small head with a short, broad, and depressed bill, a long and muscular neck, a robust body with wings incapable of flight, extremely muscular thighs and stout tarsi and feet, the latter having only two toes of unequal length directed anteriorly, the soles of which are furnished with pads or cushions especially adapted to the bird's mode of life. 1 XTpovSoKanrfKot of the Greeks; Struzzo and...

Download or read book The Ostrich written by Denis Charles Deeming and published by Cabi. This book was released on 1999 with total page 376 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Until recently, the ostrich was a relatively uncommon agricultural animal in many parts of the world, even in South Africa where it was domesticated only a little over a century ago. Recently, however, ostrich farming has grown much more popular because of its healthy meat, and production of slaughter ostriches is now a reality in many parts of the world. This book is the first wide-ranging volume to address this phenomenon and review the current scientific literature on ostrich biology, production, and health. It is written by leading authors from Europe, the United States, Israel, and South Africa, and its topics range from the anatomy, biochemistry, and physiology of the ostrich to diseases and veterinary care. The Ostrich is a necessity for avian and poultry scientists and an ideal reference for all those intrigued by the growing interest in ostrich farming.

Download or read book South Pasadena s Ostrich Farm written by Rick Thomas and published by Arcadia Publishing. This book was released on 2007-01-01 with total page 134 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Edwin Cawston courted the early-20th-century publics fascination with exotic foreign creatures when he began raising ostriches, for more than the use of their feathers in the clothing industry. When Cawston brought the enormous, flightless, African birds onto prime real estate in the Arroyo Seco of South Pasadena, Los Angeles County, more than a few observers thought that the looniest bird might be him. But Cawston was determined to showcase struthio camelus, the biggest bird in the world at 8 vertical feet and 350 pounds. The Cawston Ostrich Farm soon became one of the most popular Southern California attractions, drawing millions to watch people ride the birds bareback at a cruising speed of 35 miles per hour. Cawston supplied ostrich plumes for budget-minded consumers as well as fancy feathers for Vaudeville dancers, movie actresses, and even European queens, becoming a great promoter and showman of his time.
