Laughing Kookaburras are best known for their call, which is like loud, echoing human laughter. Kookaburras are carnivorous and will eat lizards, snakes, insects, mice and raw meat. The Australian aborigines have a legend about the Kookaburra. When the sun rose for the first time, the god Bayame ordered the kookaburra to utter its loud laughter in order to wake up mankind so that they should not miss the wonderful sunrise. . . . . . .
