What type of beak do albatross have?

Albatrosses have long, hooked beaks that are adapted for their feeding habits. Their beaks are designed to grasp and hold slippery prey, such as fish and squid, from the ocean's surface. Additionally, the beak's shape aids in their unique foraging technique, which often involves skimming the water or scavenging. The hooked tip helps them tear apart their catch more effectively.
