Does he really bury ostriches of his head in the sand?

Unlike the general beliefs, ostriches do not actually knock their heads in the sand. The ostrich, also known as Struthio Camelus , is the largest type of bird in the world, often weighs more than £ 400 (181.4 kg) and as high as 8.9 feet (2.7 meters). It is a perfect bird and is originally from Africa. It is related to other large no fly birds such as Emu. Some believe that the idea comes from the fact that ostriches accept sand and pebbles that help them swallow their food; People may have noticed that pebbles would pick up in their mouths and believe that ostriches would bury their heads instead. That his body will resemble shrubs with passing predators. This action is especially common when an ostrich tries to protect its eggs. Because the head and neck are the same color as sand, for observers, it may look as if ostriches buried their heads in the sand.

today people often say we bury our headsIn the sand, when they refuse to confront or deal with the problem and decided to deny it. It is said that he comes from the belief of ostrosice, which was first recorded by the Roman writer Plina the Elder. Now that we know that ostriches do not actually do it, maybe the phrase should be corrected. Ostriches are not as stupid as people think.
