Wait, she said they feed him Reese's Pieces at the end??
#SeriemaSunday Shot this video recently at the @ColumbusZoo. This red-legged seriema displays the natural downward thrashing behavior they use to subdue prey...similar to the sagittal striking behavior we inferred for their extinct "terror bird" cousins: http://bit.ly/2ViMhK8 pic.twitter.com/ElsBPEECoj

I'd probably repeatedly thrash a plastic crocodile on a killing stone for Reese's Pieces, but what the seriema is getting are actually "meeces pieces"...as in pieces of mouse. Kevin the seriema loves them!

I missed the part about where his name came from. It’s Kevin, right?
-
The name "Kevin" for the red-legged seriema comes from a character in the animated Disney movie "UP," which has a mythical snipe named "Kevin" that looks kindalike a seriema. :)

May I ask where that specimen usually resides? Because it isn’t usual to find them in science offices.

Kevin the red-legged seriema lives in the Animal Programs building at the Columbus Zoo. He is an ambassador animal used for public education.
