Abstract

ALTHOUGH the extraordinary breeding habits of hornbills have excited comment for many years, little is actually recorded except that the female is walled up in a natural hole, where she is fed by the male through a slit and undergoes a complete moult. Practically no one who has left notes has resisted the temptation to destroy the nest before the story was complete.
