Ostrich with chicks in Western Cape, South Africa

Why ostriches on Father’s Day? Because male ostriches are more involved in the care and rearing of their young than many other wild animals. At night, the expecting ostrich dad will sit on the eggs in the nest, his black plumage camouflaging him from predators. When they hatch, papa ostrich teaches his brood how to forage for food and is the primary protector of the young. Way to go, ostrich dad! We hope at least one of those baby ostriches remembers to call you today.
