Behavior[edit]

The Bare-Faced ibis are usually seen in large of there own species or with other species of ibis, sometimes even found with domestic animals. They live in close range neighboring amongst other flocks of ibis, typically known for the closest living habitats that range from being 100 meters away from the nearest neighbor. They are not very territorial towards other ibis birds, and rarely found alone, but most of the time the aggression is shown from food robbery from another ibis or animal. Regarding sexual behavior, the Bare-Faced ibis is less aggressive amongst other species of ibis. The males have a larger bill than the females that are relative to body size and sexual selection is not as intense as it is in other species. They also share nesting with other species as well. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 67.1.196.147 (talk) 03:36, 14 May 2015 (UTC)[reply]
