This article reports the first case of heterocoprophagy between two wild birds, which contributes to the understanding of their natural history.
Heterocoprophagy is the behavior of consuming feces of another species. Despite being documented, there are no records of this interaction between wild birds. We report the first record of heterocoprophagy between C. atratus and M. jabiru, which occurred in Curvelo, Minas Gerais. We believe that the present record is the first case of heterospecific coprophagy between two wild birds and we encourage researchers to report this type of interaction to improve knowledge and understanding of the natural history of these birds.
