The Rito are a species in The Legend of Zelda series. They debuted in The Legend of Zelda: The Wind Waker and have yet to appear in any other video game as of yet. They're a bird like species who live on Dragon Roost Island. In the beginning of their life, they're not capable of flying, though will in time be able to. When they reach a certain age, the island's guardian Valoo will give them their wings, though prior to this they used the Grappling Hook.
The most popular member of the species, Medli, is a playable character later on in the game.
They are also said to have evolved from the Zoras after Hyrule was flooded.

Crest of the Rito
The Rito have made a second appearance in the series overall. This time, they have almost entirely bird like features and unlike The Wind Waker the Rito children in Breath of the Wild are able to fly at a young age and don't require a dragon scale to evolve wings. They also co-exist with the Zoras and are entirely separate from them.
