the secretarybird has a relatively short digestive tract in comparison to other large african birds such as the kori bustard. as the foregut is specialized for digesting large amounts of meat in a short amount of time, there is little need for the physical breakdown of food within the digestive tract over extended time spans. the crop of the secretarybird is dilated and the gizzard is nonmuscular in comparison to other birds. the large intestine lacks a cecum as there is little need for fermentative digestion of plant material.

endoscopic ultrasonography is most commonly used in the upper digestive tract and in the respiratory system. the procedure is performed by gastroenterologists or pulmonologists who have had extensive training. for the patient, the procedure feels almost identical to the endoscopic procedure without the ultrasound part, unless ultrasound-guided biopsy of deeper structures is performed.
