Paragraph 1
A bird that has been
reviled in Australia for
has undergone an image change. The
is that it is helping to get rid of an even bigger
- the invasive cane toad. The bird is the white ibis, which is
to Australia. It is viewed as a
by many Australians because of its propensity to scavenge food from garbage bags and trash cans. It even steals food right out of people's
. People nickname them the "bin chicken". The word "bin" is Australian and British English for trash can. The birds are now being viewed in a
light. They have adapted and learnt how to eat the poisonous and
cane toad. As a result, Australia's natural
is benefitting.
