     La causa por que el Alicanto no puede volar, no reside en sus alas, que son perfectamente normales, sino en su buche, por la pesadez de los alimentos que ingiere.

     The reason that the Alicanto cannot fly is not to be found in its wings, which are perfectly normal, but in its crop, due to the weight of the foods it eats.
