There have been five major mass extinctions in the history of our planet. Do you want a sixth one?
The sixth mass extinction that we could be causing is not going to happen in a matter of seconds like the asteroid that struck the planet 65 million years ago. It is happening slowly, some say it may take 100 years, others say 1,000 years. There's no denying that it is happening.
The Great Indian Hornbill is such an important creature in the ecosystem. It can live for up to 70 years, and everything it does in its life has a purpose.
Great Indian Hornbills have a strong sense of family. Once they choose a partner, they'll stay with that partner for the rest of their lives. Wherever one hornbill goes, the other follows. They always stay together, and if you see one, you're sure to see its mate not far away.
They also rely on each other. Once the female finds a spot to lay her eggs, she goes inside a tree, and the male seals up the nest with mud, leaving only a small hole. This helps hide the nest from predators. Every day, the male brings 200 to 300 fruits to the nest and feeds them to his mate. This is why if one hornbill dies, an entire family is at risk.
