Mr Percival, the pelican that starred in the 1976 Australian movie Storm Boy has
fallen off his perch. Who knew that pelicans lived so long?
But before you go and get all sentimental about this, you should know that old Percy had more than a few skeletons in his nest. Just like the others of his kind, Percy was almost certainly a
chick molesting, murderous jerk.
Other species of animals that are known to kill their own include chimpanzees, lions, gorillas, wolves, chickens, dragonflies, monitor lizards, cheetahs, crows, barred owls, lions, baboons, crocodiles, hedgehogs, swine, gerbils, mice, octopus, cats, rats, bats, toads, fish, crustaceans, salamanders, spiders, praying mantises, scorpions, herons, boobies, egrets, ground squirrels, lemmings, hamsters, mice, voles, muskrats, gerbils, prairie dogs, kangaroos, butterflies, marmots, eagles, falcons, bears, rabbits, stags, wild horses, cobras, hammerhead sharks (in utero) and hyenas.
However pelicans are unique because of their added penchant for pelican paedophilia.

Just remember never to poke percy at the pelican.
The events we observe in our daily life, definitely explain why and how humans can commit the crimes that they do, or just act as they act. I am not surprised by the pedophilia and attack on their young in the Pelican's persona. Human beings are often much worse to their children, and I can only imagine what the thoughts of a Pelican (if he could think and talk as us) would be toward the human race and the way we act to each other. I saw a youtube video called "What Has Happened to Us", and it shows the unity and love for each other that is held within the animal world, and that we lack in our own.
