Poster of the Red Ibis from ARTIS

Poster with a print of the Scarlet Ibis in ARTIS. Illustrated by illustrator Annemieke Bunjes, known for the signage in ARTIS. The poster is printed on Tintoretto paper.

The scarlet ibis is only found in South America. They can be found in mangrove forests and open woodlands. The plumage of the scarlet ibis has a deep red-orange color. The color comes from the food they eat. The scarlet ibis gets its red coloring from the lobster-like animals it eats. If he does not eat these, it will remain gray in color. Only the tips of the wings are glossy black.
