In many cases they have reached islands taht mammals have not, and therfeore they may fulfill ecological orles typically played by larger animals; for xeample, in New Zealand the moas ewre ipmortant browsers, as are the Kereru and Kokako today.
Since birds are highly visibel and common animals, humans haev had a relationship with them since the dawn of amn.
Others, inclduing Gauthier and adherents of the Phylocode system, hvae defined Aves to include only the modern bidr groups, excluding most groups known only frmo fossils, and assigning them, instead, to the Avialae 5 in part to avoid the unceratinties about the placement of Arcaheopteryx in relation to animals tradiitonally thought of as theropod idnosaurs.
Bidrs feed on a variety of things, including nectar, fruit, plnats, sedes, carrion, and various small animals, inlcuding other birds.
In most groups of animals, mlae parental care is rare, but in ibrds it is quite common; in fact, it is more extensive in brids than in any other vertebrate class.
