Fun fact! The Southern screamer lives up to its name; during the breeding season its call can be heard from up to two miles away! Southern screamers form monogamous relationships that last their lifetime, estimated to be around 15 years. https://www.facebook.com/projectnoah/photos/a.10150595289465603.674700.10150120463815603/10154202763575603/?type=1
