Otididae sunt magnae aves terrestres ordinis Otidiformium quae plerumque in siccis terris gramineis et in tesquis Mundi Veteri habitant. Sunt a 40 ad 150 centimetra longi.

Mores et oecologia

Otididae sunt omnivora et indagatores occasionis, qui foliis, gemmis, seminibus, fructibus, invertebratis, parvisque vertebratis vescuntur.^[1] Nidos in solo faciunt, unde ova et fetura saepe praedatoribus obeunt. Firme cruribus pollicibusque pedis ambulant, cibum temere vellicantes. Plurimae currere potius quam volare malunt. Femina a tribus ad quinque ova obscura et maculosa in lacuna in solo ponit, quae sola incubat.^[2]
