Does this animal carry curses/bad luck (such as Black Cat, Horse with horseshoe, Rabbit with leg, etc) ? (yeah it has a connection to your name.  )

It is a vertebrate.
And, yes, there is an association between it and bad luck.

Is this animal's bad luck noted in literature or poetry?

It is not a black cat nor a toad.
The association of this animal with luck does not originate in the U.S., but I don't believe there's a specific country it is associated with.
There's definitely a connection to literature or poetry.

It is indeed an albatross, traditionally a symbol of good luck to sailors, unless you harm one, in which case it brings bad luck.
And of course the albatross is closely associated with Coleridge's The Rime of the Ancient Mariner.

Bah! I should have just guessed Albatross. I was thinking Rime of the Ancient Mariner with the literature/poetry question.
Is this an animal one can usually find in a zoo?
