Fun Facts:

The laughing kookaburra is the largest Kingfisher in the world, famous for its human-like cackling call, and native to eastern Australia. Their iconic loud call is not meant to be joyful; it is a territorial war cry used to warn other birds away at dawn and dusk.

They pair for life and can live for 15 to 20 years in the wild. They live in close-knit family groups and practice cooperative breeding, where older offspring stay behind to help parents raise new chicks
