The snail kite, a hawk-like bird, relies solely on freshwater snails, particularly the Florida apple snail. Their beaks have adapted to become curved and pointed and act as a hook that allows them to pull snails out of their shells. #netgeowildlife #birdphotography #snails #Eagles #Hawks | Documentary Wild Animals

The Florida Snail Kite is a unique subspecies once known as the Everglades Kite, deeply tied to the wetlands it calls home. 🐌🦅 With its curved bill, it expertly feeds on native apple snails—but habitat loss and invasive species threaten its survival. Places like Corkscrew Swamp Sanctuary help by protecting native snails, but the best defense starts with us: Never release pet snails into the wild. To learn more about South-West Florida’s ecosystem and fauna, tune into this week’s latest episode

When invasive apple snails pulled up, they outcompeted the smaller natives and were too large for the birds to eat.

PastVue on Instagram: "The snail kite is a specialist hunter in the Florida Everglades, using its sharply hooked bill to pull apple snails from their shells with precision.
