Summary

[edit]
Description

Le Cariama huppé (Cariama cristata) est la seule espèce du genre Cariama. C'est un oiseau qui préfère se déplacer au sol plutôt que de voler (bien qu'il en soit capable sur de petites distances). Le cou, les pattes et la queue sont longs mais les ailes sont courtes. Il mesure 70 cm de haut et a une longueur de 90 cm. Son poids peut attendre 1,4 kg.

Ce sont des oiseaux au plumage gris-jaune, avec une crête érectile d'environ 12 cm. Le bec et les pattes sont rouges. C'est un des rares oiseaux à avoir des cils.

The red-legged seriema or crested cariama (Cariama cristata) is a mostly predatory terrestrial bird in the seriema family (Cariamidae), included in the "Gruiformes" in the old paraphyletic circumscription, but increasingly placed in a distinct order Cariamiformes (along with three extinct families). The red-legged seriema inhabits grasslands from Brazil south of the Amazon to Uruguay and northern Argentina. The area over which it occurs is estimated at 5.9 million km², though the bird is not found everywhere in this region of course. The species is absent from the Mata Atlântica and planalto uplands along the coast of Brazil.
