Best Answer

The largest living bird is the ostrich (Struthio camelus), a flightless ratite species. An adult ostrich can be up to 9.2 feet (2.8 m) tall and weigh up to 340 pounds (155 kg). An ostrich EGG can weigh up to 3 pounds (1.4 kg), more than most of the world's birds.

Although unable to fly, ostriches can run at up to 45 mph (70 kph), faster than any other bird.

The most famous bird that does not fly is the ostrich and lives in Africa. Australia also has several non-flying birds, including the cassowary and the kiwi. Also, penguins in Antarctica and New Zealand do not fly.
