The pelican uses its pouch primarily for catching and holding fish. When hunting, it dives or scoops water with its beak, allowing the pouch to expand and trap the fish while draining excess water. This adaptation enables the pelican to efficiently capture and store prey, which it can then swallow whole after closing its beak and squeezing out the water.
