What is the maximum speed on land of ostrich?
Answering "What is the maximum speed on land of an ostrich? Ostriches have been recorded at speed of 45mph (72km/h) in a short burst. That is faster than a race horse, which has been recorded doing 43mph 69km/h over one fourth of a mile (402meters). Their foot strides are between 5-7m (16-23ft) at full speed and they can keep running for around 20 min at 30mph (48km/h). This is becomes they are birds, and unlike humans and other mammals, they can use 100% of their lung capacity, thus obtaining more oxygen. There is video footage of two lionesses chasing and catching an ostrich. Normally only cheetah are fast enough to catch them. However, this is not very common because ostriches are very fast and they can keep running for a long time. They have two large toes that give them good grip when run. And they can also change direction quickly at full speed. They can also use their sharp toes to kick predators. A cheetah has been filmed chasing ostriches, but the ostriches changed direction very quickly, making it very difficult for the cheetah to catch them. An adult ostrich weighs around 150kg (330Ib) and normally lives around 50 years. written by JPBiggs 27.06.08

Why do ostrich hide their heads in the ground?
Ostriches DO NOT bury their heads in the sand. This is a myth. From a distance it may have since the Colonial era have looked like that's what they are doing, when the males of the species are digging and then lying down and apparently disappearing, but in fact the male is disguising his white feathers with sand and lying down to protect the eggs, which is his job. Still, it's in the vernacular now …
They are referred to as 'calves'. Or singular 'calf's.
I hope this helped.

Ostrich and gazelle symbiosis?
an ostrich. they have different view points, so they can warn the other of predators that the other may not be able to see
As a ruminant, the gazelle has bacteria in one of it's stomach chambers. The relationship between the gazelle and the bacteria would be described as a symbiotic relationship. Symbiosis refers to an interaction between two species that is necessary for the survival of both. Without each other, they would not survive.
They certainly aren't born with lice, they get the lice from their dams if the doe is already infested with lice herself.
Who is faster a cheetah or ostrich?
Probably not. I think I heard that ostriches are faster than racehorses but not faster than cheetahs. If they could fly they might dive faster than a cheetah runs, HAHAHA! I suppose ostriches may run 45 miles per hour, and the super duper cheetah can run up to either 60, 65, 70, 71, or 75 miles per hour, STARTING at 45 miles per hour, as fast as an ostrich I think.
Do elk eat aspen bark off of the trees?
NO: Q: What do elk eat?
A: Again, elk are grazers, just like cattle. Elk are more "efficient" grazers than cattle, however. A good rule of thumb is that if your land will support 1 female dairy cow, it will sustain 3 female elk. This results in an overall lower cost since you fence and manage 1/3 as much land for the same herd size. Elk do require better forage to maintain optimum condition, so pasture improvement is sometimes recommended. During velveting and lactation, elk have higher nutritional needs
