Orphaned references in Great White Pelican

I check pages listed in Category:Pages with incorrect ref formatting to try to fix reference errors. One of the things I do is look for content for orphaned references in wikilinked articles. I have found content for some of Great White Pelican's orphans, the problem is that I found more than one version. I can't determine which (if any) is correct for this article, so I am asking for a sentient editor to look it over and copy the correct ref content into this article.

Reference named "Handbook":

• From List of birds of Palestine: "The Handbook of Palestine". MacMillan and Co., Limited. 1922. Retrieved 2009-07-28. {{cite web}}: Unknown parameter |editors= ignored (|editor= suggested) (help)
• From Dalmatian Pelican: del Hoyo, et al., Handbook of the Birds of the World. Volume 1: Ostrich to Ducks. Lynx Edicons (1992), ISBN 978-84-87334-10-8
• From Kleptoparasitism: Ehrlich, Paul R.; Dobkin, David S.; Wheye, Darryl; Pimm, Stuart L. (1994). The Birdwatcher's Handbook. Oxford: Oxford University Press. ISBN 0-19-858407-5.

I apologize if any of the above are effectively identical; I am just a simple computer program, so I can't determine whether minor differences are significant or not. AnomieBOT⚡ 16:59, 27 July 2012 (UTC)

other predators

Bull sharks, for example, readily take white pelicans if they can catch them. There are probably other species that have been found with pelican carcasses in their stomachs - an RS should be easily found? 104.169.39.45 (talk) 06:43, 18 January 2018 (UTC)

Just added a link to educational article with a video about great white pelicans. I think would be very interesting for kids (video)Mark.barkan (talk) 07:32, 5 October 2020 (UTC)
