Try looking at pictures of any of the six know specimens rather than
artists impressions. Paintings ain't science.
It also has a jaw-full of teeth instead of a beak!
Other than the large number of features that show conclusively it
isn't a *****ing hoatzin, yes it could be a hoatzin.
Other than the fact that I have two arms and two legs, a
four-chambered heart, hair, nipples, functional lungs, etc. etc. etc.
I could be a herring!
This can only be a wind-up!

Usually described as 'crow-sized'. Many birds are. What's your point?
