What is another word for Mallee Fowl?
Pronunciation: [mˈaliː fˈa͡ʊl] (IPA) 
Mallee fowl, also known as lowan, is a species of ground-dwelling Australian megapode. The bird is endemic to the mallee regions of southern Australia, where it lives in dense shrublands and dry woodlands. The species is not often referred to by alternative names, although its scientific name, Leipoa ocellata, refers to its elegant spotted plumage. In some parts of Australia, the mallee fowl is sometimes called a bush turkey or scrub turkey, although these names are colloquially used for other species of birds as well. Despite its obscure common name, the mallee fowl is a fascinating bird to observe, as it builds large mounds of organic material for incubating its eggs and maintaining a warm temperature.
