Do pelicans belong to the phylum Chordata?
Yes. As Chordates (or members of the phylum Chordata), pelicans share the following characteristics:
- dorsal nerve cord which is a bundle of nerve fibres which runs down the back. It connects the brain with the lateral muscles and other organs.
- notochord which is a cartilaginous rod running underneath, and supporting, the nerve cord - in the case of the pelican, a spine.
- post-anal tail - an extension of the body past the anal opening. (This feature is not always present in some adult Chordates such as frogs and humans, but it is present in the pelican.)
- Pharyngeal pouches - Chordates, at some stage of their life, have pharyngeal grooves and pouches that develop into other essential parts of their anatomy.

Create a myth that explains why pelicans have large beaks?
Once upon a time pelicans had small beacks like a crane,but then oneday aragogulara a young pelican was carrying home a very heavy load of fish.
"ugghh these fishare very heavy"she said.So she put them all iside her
beak,but the fish were so heavy that they stretched her beak out.So until
this day pelicans have large beaks.Good right?
Their diet consists mainly of fish, which they capture individually or through a co-operative effort: a few birds will form a semicircle and slowly swim towards shore while beating their wings and herding their prey towards shallower water; in unison they dip their bill and catch any fish that swim into it. The bill of all pelicans, unique to the bird world, has a distensible throat pouch that can hold up to 13.5 litres. The pouch is not only used as a dip net to catch fish, but acts as a cooling device when this bare skin is fluttered.
