The wandering albatross is extremely baller. Don't mistake it for it's idiot cousin the seagull. Unlike seagulls, albatrosses actually do something with their lives. Imagine having wings and all you do is scavenge off the same dock forever while treating your own species like the garbage you choose to subsist on. Get a life. The albatross travels the world and catches it's own food. It doesn't need humans and doesn't care about humans and that gives it an automatic edge.
It has the largest wingspan of any living bird, which is what allows it to fly around the entire world without even realizing how big of a deal that is. Imagine if you could just fly to a whole other continent RIGHT NOW. Even with cutting edge aviation technology, you still need shelter and food provided to you along the way. Globalised infrastructure just for one aspect alone. In a superiority contest between you and the wandering albatross, it's not even close.
