How much food is required for a laughing kookaburra per day?

Laughing Kookaburras are the largest of the four kookaburra species and, like all kookaburras, are carnivorous, feeding on invertebrates such as insects, Spiders, worms, centipedes and crustaceans. They also eat vertebrates such as reptiles, fish, frogs and even small birds and mammals. Kookaburras have been observed catching a snake or lizard, carrying it up into the trees, and vigorously beating it on a branch or dropping it to kill it.

Their diet remains the same whether they are in the wild or in captivity. However, birds living in urban areas are opportunistic, and have often been known to swoop and take food such as sausages from picnic tables and even barbeques.
