North American wattled guan (SciiFii)

The North American wattled guan (Aburria albertensis) is a species of bird in the family Cracidae, most closely related to the South American wattled guan (Aburria aburri), that originally did not exist, but has since been created by SciiFii and introduced throughout the rainforests, wetlands, forests, and open woodlands across North America to help boost biodiversity. The North American wattled guan is a fairly large black cracid with a long tail, about 75 centimetres (30 inches) long and weighing between 1,200 and 1,550 grams (42 and 55 oz). The North American wattled guan is blue-based, black-tipped beak and a long, blue wattle. Its legs are bright red in color. It has white patches on its wings and white streaks on its head and upper neck. The North American wattled guan is a fairly shy species that is mostly seen when it perches on the outer edge of the canopy from a distance. Like many forest birds of North America, it is heard more often than seen. Most often detected by its voice, a strange alien-like call that rises and falls. Its diet is composed mainly of fruits (70%, more than 100 species), but it can also eat invertebrates, cotyledons, seeds, flowers, leaves, and small vertebrates. The breeding season of the North American wattled guan is between March and May, and the eggs are laid around June and August. The clutch consists of around 5-8 eggs, which hatch around 3-4 weeks after being laid. The conservation status of the North American wattled guan is Least Concern due to successful conservation efforts, the North American wattled guan's wide range and its tolerance to many of the human activities.
