'''Giant ostriches''' are [[giant animal]] variants of the [[ostrich]], found in [[savage]] [[desert]]s, [[tropical]] [[savanna]]s and tropical [[grassland]]s. Like the regular ostrich, these animals appear in small groups of up to ten individuals. Being benign creatures they will meander and generally keep to themselves. Giant ostriches are roughly the size of a [[water buffalo]], or 14 times larger than a [[dwarf]], and as such they are a force to be reckoned with against a poorly equipped militia if provoked. Males are called ''giant ostrich cocks'' and females are called ''giant ostrich hens''. | '''Giant ostriches''' are [[giant animal]] variants of the [[ostrich]], found in [[savage]] [[desert]]s, [[tropical]] [[savanna]]s and tropical [[grassland]]s.
