[edit] Calling Mel Blanc

Do we really need to mention, "unlike the cartoon, the song of this bird is a dove-like coo, not beep-beep"? Does anybody thin the real bird is the same as the cartoon? Also, can anybody substantiate the claim the chaparral can lower its body temperature? Trekphiler 10:34, 22 February 2007 (UTC)

Actually, roadrunners make a very loud, rattling cry. It's quite frightening if you're not expecting it. I've never heard any dove-like cooing. 67.49.247.73 03:31, 19 August 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Important Details

Why does this article fail to mention the general size and weight of the bird, mating habts, etc.? Alot of important details are missing. Alan--24.184.184.177 20:53, 17 August 2007 (UTC)
