Roadrunners prefer walking or running and attain speeds up to 17 mph. hour
The Roadrunner is also called the Chaparral Cock.
The Roadrunner reabsorbs water from its feces before excretion. (gross!)
The Roadrunner’s nasal gland eliminates excess salt, instead of using the urinary tract like most birds. (gross!)
