The Roc is a huge eagle-like bird that is said to
be able to carry off and eat elephants. In Aladdin,
the Roc is supposedly the genie's master. In one of
the stories of Sinbad, the Roc attacks his ship. The
Roc may have come from a real bird called an
Elephant Bird that lived in Madagascar until about
500 years ago. This bird was about 10 feet tall and
weighed at least 1000 pounds
