With a length of 160 to 183 centimetres (63 to 72 inches), a<br>mass of 7.25 to 15 kilograms (16.0 to 33.1 pounds) and a wingspan of 245 to 351 centimetres (96 to 138 inches), its the largest pelican<br>species and one of the world's largest living flying birds. The Dalmatian pelican has a range spanning across much of central Eurasia, from the<br>Mediterranean in the west to the Taiwan Strait in the east, and from the Persian Gulf in the south to Siberia in the north. Itis a short-to-medium-<br>distance migrant between breeding and overwintering areas. The Dalmatian pelican’s preferred habitat is lakes, rivers, deftas and estuaries,<br>and it feeds on various fish species such as the common carp and European perch. Like many pelicans, it is often silent, but can be vocal<br>during the mating season, engaging in a wide range of guttural, deep vocalisations, including barks, hisses and grunts.
