What Exactly is: Hoatzin and Why is it Called the Flying Cow

Hoatzin is quite a unique bird. Some people call them the flying cow, some call them the stink bird, some perhaps both. Because of their unique traits, I’ve seen some people labelled them as a close relative to Archaeopteryx, or primitive birds in general, but that’s not true at all. 0:00 Opening thought 0:36 Hoatzin 2:19 Unique digestive system 4:17 Mysterious origin References Pagès, F.
