In Real Life

Oriental Storks are large white birds with black wing tips and bright red legs. They are very similar in appearance to the White Stork and at one point were even considered a subspecies.

These storks are typically around 100–129 cm (39.5–51 in) long and 110–150 cm (43–59 in) tall, and can weigh between 2.8–5.9 kg (6.2–13.0 lb.). They also have an impressive wingspan of 2.22 meters (7.3 ft.). There is no sexual dimorphism- both males and females look the same. The only major difference being the females are slightly smaller.

Their habitat ranges from Japan, Manchuria (Northeastern China), Korea and Siberia. At one point they were extirpated from Japan and Korea (meaning they ceased to be in those two countries, but could still be found in Manchuria and Siberia). However, in May 2007 a hatchling was reported in Japan for the first time in 40 years in the wild. The hatchling was found to be the offspring of two Oriental Storks that were raised in human care and then released.

They can be found in wet areas- marshes, coastal lines, pond edges, etc. In their habitats, they are apex predators at the top of the food chain. Their omnivorous diet includes frogs, fish, insects, small rodents, and even other smaller birds.
