Baze podataka

Veliki vranac (lat. Phalacrocorax carbo) (Veliki kormoran, kormoran) jedna je od najraširenijih vrsta u porodici kormorana (Phalacrocoracidae). Gnijezda najčešće svija na stjenovitim obalskim područjima ili plažama uz more ili jezera. Na takvim mjestima se i odmara.

Veliki vranac može težiti od 1 i pol[1] do 5,3 kg[2] (prosječna težina iznosi od 2,6 do 3,7 kg[3]) te doseći dužinu od 70 do 120 cm. Raspon krila može doseći od 121 do 160 cm. Oko očiju i kljuna nalazi se mrlja žute boje koja, obično u vrijeme sezone parenja, postaje bijela. Živi u Starom svijetu koji uključuje Europu, Aziju i Afriku, Australiji te na obalama Atlantskog oceana. Veliki vranci koji žive na sjeveru sele se na jug te ondje provode zimu.
