Heya!!
Here is the question
How do birds chew food ??

Answer 1

Hey !!!

=============

Without teeth, a bird cannot chew itsfood down to bits in its mouth like humans do. As detailed in the textbook Ornithology by Frank B. Gill,birds must instead rely on the muscular stomach-like pouch called the gizzard to crush down their food. Many species swallow stones and grit to aid in digestion.

Answer 2

Birds do not chew or digest food the same way as humans or more familiar animals, so how do birds eat? Understanding birds' different digestive organs and their eating process can help birders be more knowledgeable about the best foods for birds and why a healthy diet is important for every bird.


Observing when and how birds eat is the first step to learning more about their eating habits and digestion.
