Monovoc found in the forests of South America!

This video is old, but it’s still not a bad thing to watch again!

In July 2005, Kimberly Bastowick, a zoologist and researcher at Cornell University, presented her findings about a cricket bird.

This bird lives in the forests of South America. To find a mate, it dances and produces songs with its wings. Well, that’s not surprising in a nature that offers a new miracle every moment. But the amazing thing about this little bird—what makes it an exception—is that it dances moonwalk!

Bastowick used a high-speed camera to capture the bird’s movements. The bird has become known as the "moonwalking bird" thanks to the film of it posted on YouTube.

At the end of the documentary posted on YouTube, the narrator says that if you can find "Michael Jackson moonwalk" deep in these forests, who knows what will be discovered there in the future!
