Bustard. Bustards, including floricans and korhaans, are large, terrestrial birds living mainly in dry grassland areas and in steppe regions. They range in length from 40 to 150 cm (16 to 59 in). They make up the family Otididae (/ oʊˈtɪdɪdiː /, formerly known as Otidae).
Bustards are omnivorous—preferring insect or small vertebrate food when it is available. Though they are typically seen striding across dry, open landscapes, bustards are also strong fliers. In fact, the bustard family includes the two heaviest species capable of flight – the Great Bustard and Kori Bustard.
The great bustard (Otis tarda) is a bird in the bustard family, and the only living member of the genus Otis. [2] It breeds in open grasslands and farmland from northern Morocco, South and Central Europe to temperate Central and East Asia. European populations are mainly resident, but Asian populations migrate farther south in winter.
bustard, any of numerous medium-to-large game birds of the family Otididae, related to the cranes and rails in the order Gruiformes. There are about 23 species, confined to Africa, southern Europe, Asia, Australia, and part of New Guinea. Bustards have rather long legs, adapted to running.

It is a member of the bustard family, which all belong to the order Otidiformes and are restricted in distribution to the Old World. It is one of the four species (ranging from Africa to India to Australia) in the large-bodied genus Ardeotis.
Bustards, including floricans and korhaans, are part of the Otididae family, consisting of 26 recognized species. These birds typically inhabit dry grasslands and steppes throughout the Old World, varying greatly in size from the little brown bustard at 40 cm (16 in) and 600 g (1.3 lb), to the kori and great bustards, which can weigh over 20 kg ...
The Great bustard (Otis tarda) is a bird in the bustard family, the only member of the genus Otis. It is one of the heaviest birds alive today that can fly. Great bustards are found in Europe and Portugal and Spain now have about 60% of the world's population. This species became extinct in Great Britain when the last bird was shot in 1832.
