Hi my-blogmedia readers, how are you. Miss your Mom, haha?. Continuing the previous posts, here is animal that have a good mom behaviour on number 4. Enjoy.
4. Red-knobbed Hornbill
Red-knobbed hornbills live on the Indonesian island of Sulawesi, where they utilize holes in trees as their nests. Their eggs are a favorite food of monitor lizards, so to combat these predators, the hornbills narrow the entryway to their nests with a very special sealant -- their own feces. Momma Hornbill will stay in her hole for the entire two-month incubation period, ignoring any of her own hunger pains to her detriment (though one can imagine that the smell from her protection method would more or less kill anyone's appetite).
