The "Death Stare" of the Shoebill. 👁️ Meet the Shoebill Stork. Standing up to 5 feet tall with a beak that looks like a wooden clog (hence the name), it is one of the most prehistoric-looking animals on Earth.

That poor fish never saw it coming. 🐟 On a scale of 1-10, how scary is this bird? 👇 #shoeb
