Pelicans feed on fish up to 30 cm long. They take their aquatic prey from the water's surface or from depths close to the surface. They catch large numbers of fish by enlarging their throat sacs. But after they empty the water in their sacs above water, they swallow their prey. After catching the big fish, they throw them into the air and catch them in the air and swallow them. Other pelicans often dive into the water to hunt fish. In deep waters, pelicans often hunt alone. In deep places, they hunt in groups.
