Savile's Bustard is a small bird of the bustard family. It lives in dry savannas and steppes of Africa and is distinguished by the bright breeding plumage of males.
Savile's Bustard differs from other bustards by its small body size and special black-and-white pattern in males. It helps control insect populations in the savanna and serves as prey for predators.
