The Indian Ocean albatross is a large seabird known for its impressive wingspan, which can reach up to 3 meters. This bird primarily inhabits the waters of the Indian Ocean and is often seen gliding gracefully over the ocean surface. It feeds mainly on fish and squid, using its keen eyesight to spot prey from the air. These albatrosses are part of the Diomedeidae family and are known for their long-distance flying abilities. They breed on remote islands, where they build nests and raise their young. Conservation efforts are important for their survival, as they face threats from fishing activities and habitat loss.
