he got an electrical bill

Although it was removed from the national list of threatened species in 1987, the American white pelican is still considered endangered in Alberta. The population here is increasing (from 548 nesting pairs in 1980 to over 1,000 today) but fewer than half of the 20 known historic nesting islands are still in use.

The American white pelican has faced poison from pollutants that build up in its system due to eating contaminated fish, habitat loss and over-exploitation. Also, the American white pelican is known to abandon its nest and thus its young when the parents are disturbed by human activity.

first they poke their enemies with their beak the the flap their wings to hit them and then they fly away

The Pelican will eat seafood. A Pelican will hunt for its prey by flying/soaring above open salt water bodies & rivers. The Pelican will visually search for the proper size victim/fish and dive directly into the water and attempt to capture the potential meal with its large pouched bill. The Pelican will then return to the surface - naturally to breath - and of course, consume the food. I've enjoyed watching the Pelicans in both the Gulf and Bay in Sarasota, FL.

Some species are 70 in. (180 cm) long, have a wingspan of 10 ft (3 m), and weigh up to 30 lbs (13 kg).

No. It eats mainly fish and amphibians as well as crustaceans. Groups of Brown Pelicans often travel in single file, flying low over the water's surface

6 months

I think that this is incorrect...both by observing the behaviour of spur winged plovers in our backyard in SE Qld and by the following information:

'The incubation period is 28-30 days but addled eggs have been incubated for 55-62 days. Young leave the nest almost immediately after hatching, and some young leave before all eggs have hatched.'

Pelican's do have webbed feet, with 4 toes. Their bills are not necessarily shaped like nets. They have pouched bills that can hold a lot. and their face is pointed because the mother drops rocks on their bills for safety.

they use it to crack open hard fruits and nuts!

A pelican is a large water bird with a distinctive pouch under the beak, belonging to the bird family Pelecanidae. Along with the darters, cormorants, gannets, boobies, frigatebirds, and tropicbirds, pelicans make up the order Pelecaniformes. Modern pelicans are found on all continents except Antarctica. They occur mostly in warm regions, though breeding ranges reach 45° south (Australian Pelican, P. conspicillatus) and 60° North (American White Pelicans, P. erythrorhynchos, in western Canada).[1] Birds of inland and coastal waters, they are absent from polar regions, the deep ocean, oceanic islands, and inland South America.

we clocked one at 55 mph today in deerfield bch fl. It was ahead of our SUV waverunner that has a brand new engine in it.

The photo above is a Roseate Spoonbill. I think that answers your question.

It depends upon the size of the pelican and the sizes of the fish.

We as human form use pelicans as nothing we don't use them as meat in fact the only purpose of them is to look at there unique personality in the zoo.

They put their heads under the water and catch the fish in their beaks. They then lift their beaks up into the air and the fish goes down their throat.......

Crocodiles are predators of the White Ibis.

Yes, Pelicans are vertebrates.

It is an adaptation that allows them to catch fish quickly.

The pelican is a carnivore, eating mostly fish.
