The Malkoha bird family, belonging to the Cuculidae family, consists of tropical and subtropical species primarily found in Southeast Asia. Known for their vibrant plumage and long tails, Malkohas are arboreal birds that prefer dense forest habitats. Unlike many other members of the cuckoo family, Malkohas are non-parasitic, constructing their own nests and raising their young. They are omnivorous, feeding on a variety of insects, small vertebrates, and fruits, which they forage in the forest canopy.
