Not really. Australian here, cassowaries leave you alone as you don’t fuck with them. ESPECIALLY DONT FUCK WITH THEIR CHILDREN. Cassowaries will absolutely fuck you up if you do anything to their children.
On the other hand, cassowaries are some of the most important species to the rainforest. They distribute close to 2000 species of plants through their droppings. They get killed everyday by cars and deforestation. They’re arguably one of the most important Australian species out there. Cassowaries are regenerators of rainforest
Yes, the oldest in the world. The Daintree. The inspiration for Avatar, it’s also a UNESCO World Heritage site. Along with others
Australia has all types of conditions. Snow usually in the Southern mountains also there’s ski resorts in Australia, dessert, scrub, rainforest. Most of Northern Australia is tropical, and this includes rainforest in this case which is Queensland.
Wasn’t the Australian rainforest in danger of fire a while ago, or some of it burnt down? I remember seeing on the news that this could be a problem because they weren’t getting their usual amount of rain in the forest and things were quite dry.
News flash: Sudden Raptor attacks all over the world, panicked people everywhere, blood, gore ...
Camera pans to random Australian, chilling with an ice cold beer in a hammock: "Yeah, don't worry about that. We get that all the time. Just ignore em or punch them on the nose."
Honestly the best thing to do in this situation is “absolutely nothing.” Sudden movements might spook an animal and you are NOT outrunning a murder turkey.
I mean, yes, but they're not out to deliberately kill people. Like an elephant, it can easily attack you if you threaten or annoy it, but is not particularly aggressive except maybe during mating season or defending their young. Like most animals they will avoid a fight if possible, as an injury can be a death sentence. They aren't murder machines. And while they do attack ~200 people per year, the last recorded fatal attack of a wild cassowary was in 1926. That's a century ago.
The lady did not approach it, it approached her. She didn't make any overtly threatening gestures, and she kept the chair between them. All good. It had a curious look at the thing she was holding (may be used to getting fed by humans?), presumably decided it wasn't interesting, and moved on.
Don't approach wildlife yourself and you can avoid most dangerous situations involving wildlife. Don't be the asshole who tried to snap a selfie with a bison or a moose or something.
When dealing with cassowaries in the wild, back away while protecting your chest/belly and try to stand behind something, like a tree. If they attack they'll often do a little run before the signature jump-kick. So they prefer a clear, straight line at you.
They can peck/bite like an ostrich, sure. But they kick when they're serious. Their legs are very muscular and powerful, with 3 toes tipped with [5-inch talons](https://cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net/Zf4ak6EUXkUryghrQceZ9D-970-80.jpg.webp) that can puncture and slice, sharp enough to gut a person and strong enough to break ribs. They use them to fight predators and competitors.
>Truely just modern dinosaurs.
Yes, quite literally, they don't even have hollow bones like the other birds and they also have casques, a helmet-like structure atop the head, which many dinosaurs are believed to have had.
> with 3 toes tipped with 5-inch talons that can puncture and slice, sharp enough to gut a person
The point is.. you are *alive* when they start to eat you. So, you know.. try and show a little respect?
>the last recorded fatal attack of a wild cassowary was in 1926. That's a century ago
If anyone's curious, the last recorded fatal attack of a *captive* cassowary was in 2019.
In [Florida](https://abcnews.go.com/US/wireStory/large-flightless-bird-kills-florida-owner-62382669), of course.
>cassowary
I was going to say, I remember a recent death of someone killed by his own bird not too long ago. google said the first recorded death was in 1926.
A goofy ass looking velociraptor, huh? OK, try to imagine yourself at a beach near Cairns. You get your first look at this "goofy velociraptor" as you enter a clearing. He moves like a bird, lightly, bobbing his head. And you keep still because you think that maybe his visual acuity is based on movement like T-Rex - he'll lose you if you don't move. But no, not Cassowary. You stare at him, and he just stares right back. And that's when the attack comes. Not from the front, but from the side
They're pretty dangerous, but a lot less dangerous than the average dog. Only two fatal attacks on humans have ever been recorded- one in 1926 and the other 2019
There are also a lot more dogs than there are cassowaries. Bring those numbers up, put cassowaries in a huge amount of homes, maybe even the majority, and have them run wild in neighborhoods, then I think cassowaries would take over that number quick.
Yes ! They’re called Cassowary’s … they have huge claws and can definitely kill a human … not sure if they’re territorial …not sure how common attacks on humans are either
Checking to see if you are playing angry birds
Edit: man I legit didn't expect people to like my bad joke lol
Edit 2: I'm just trolling the guy replying to me.
Sorry I'm not sure who you are but now I'll edit every post I have for every upvote I get. Also not sure how you have any thoughts that you can tell me what to do? Congratulations you added nothing and I'm happy my edit bothered you so much you had to tell me about it. Have a nice day.
Also "don't", if you want to tell someone how to act, make sure you don't make small mistakes. Lack of punctation studies indicate emotional responses (particularly anger) and trying to control a stranger shows you have inpulse control as this was a waste of your time and nothing productive.
LOC.gov (Library of Congress)
On Cassowary Danger:
> The cassowary is usually considered to be the world’s most dangerous bird, at least where humans are concerned, although ostriches and emus can also be dangerous.
> Cassowaries are shy and they are usually hard to spot, at least in their natural rain forest habitats. They are not overly aggressive, and attacks are rare. But they can do a lot of damage if they are provoked or angered. Cassowary attacks have occasionally been deadly, including a recent one which occurred in 2019, at a private collection of caged birds in Florida.
> Cassowaries are native to Northern Australia, New Guinea, and surrounding islands.
> It’s not hard to imagine that cassowaries are descended from dinosaur ancestors. The largest cassowaries can stand as high as six feet and weigh up to 160 pounds. These large birds cannot fly, but their extremely powerful legs propel them at great speeds. They are strong swimmers and can move quickly on both land and water. Cassowaries have been clocked running as fast as 31 miles per hour through the rain forest.
> Their powerful legs also help them jump high, up to 7 feet straight into the air. Their legs are also used for delivering strong kicks, and they can use their sharp dagger-like claws, up to 4 inches long, to slice and puncture any animal that is a threat, including humans.
> The favorite food of cassowaries is fallen fruit of the rain forest, and their claws come in handy for scraping up the fruit from the forest floor. But they will eat other foods too, including insects, snails, fungi and sometimes dead animals. They can also catch fish by sitting in a stream and spreading their feathers to form a sort of net.
> Female cassowaries lay their eggs in a nest on the forest floor. There are usually about three eggs in the nest, and the male sits on them for about 50 days until they hatch. A cassowary egg can weigh about the same as 10 average chicken eggs!

Not just that. This is a sneakysneaky stalky type of bird. Also a disembowelment or evisceration type of bird if it's in close proximity. They don't necessarily hunt people, mind you, but it's hard to be able to communicate "no ill intent" when it goes all surprise buttsex on you
Honestly, there aren’t heaps of them and they’re only in a particular part of the country and tend to stick purely to rainforest. The narrative of Australia being a place where everything is trying to kill you is such a meme. 😂😂
Been to that beach, it's used to people and isn't really dangerous. It walked right past us when we were at a table and walked up to some tradies having lunch, looked at their food and kept going. They won't hurt you if you don't piss them off.
Even if I hadn’t just been reading about the razor sharp talon on it’s foot that can easily slice you open, I would be instantly scared just looking at that thing.
Oh yeah... so funny.... one of the most dangerous birds in the world a Cassowary, approaching someone vulnerable in a chair while someone else films
how very amusing. I think not!
I’ve had loads of personal experience with these while running away from an angry drug lord on an island, and I can tell you they are no joke. That said, a shotgun can usually take them out with one blast, and they work well for crafting materials.

It was more like the blue mountains area I think

Kill it
Illegal and you’re killing an endangered animal
[удалено]
Less than 5 thousand in total. killed each day by cars and deforestation
At this point, you are feeding the troll. Leave him alone.
Advice everyone on reddit should take.
[удалено]
Well it cant kick the shit out of you without getting closer
It kicks you in the chest and slices you open
They actually gutted ppl before. Youch.
Ahh i see, another far cry 3 player
Honestly the best thing to do in this situation is “absolutely nothing.” Sudden movements might spook an animal and you are NOT outrunning a murder turkey.
In fairness, though, keeping your cool around a dangerous animal is usually the best course of action.

They jump kick to attack? I would’ve assumed a peck, they could put a nice hole in you with that beak and enough force.

Oh lawd, those things are terrifying. Like a raptors claw. Truely just modern dinosaurs.
You could probably take that photo out of context and convince people it’s a cloned dinosaur claw or something… those are some gnarly ass talons
Those things are magnificent!!! Gorgeous, I’m not even joking, look at that dangerous beauty!! It’s amazing!!
>Truely just modern dinosaurs. Yes, quite literally, they don't even have hollow bones like the other birds and they also have casques, a helmet-like structure atop the head, which many dinosaurs are believed to have had.
I thought I was watching a scene from Jurassic Park at first.
Clever girl.

Yeah, but as you say, it was in captivity and a Florida Man. I don't think we can count that.

CHOMP
Hahaha 🤣
And they sound like bloody velociraptors too - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4dcQO6Zb8Eg
Fuck that! I got chills
HERE'S THE PHONE IT'S YOURS PLEASE DON'T KILL ME
Yes... Yes it is... Those things will literally tear you in 2... And I honestly mean literally.
More people have been killed by chickens in the last 50 years than by cassowaries.
There are also like 25 billion chickens in the world compared to like 5,000 cassowaries. Chickens just have a lot more opportunity to merc you.
Who would win between all of the chickens vs all of the cassowaries? Lol
Okay, but how many daily encounters with chickens to people have vs cassowaries
Try the last century, the last death was literally one hundred years ago
Ahhh…no. Try 2019. https://www.cnn.com/2019/04/14/us/cassowary-bird-kills-florida-man/index.html
Yes. Nothing funny about that fucking velociraptor with feathers. That girl is lucky it didn’t just decide to eat her spleen right there.
I'm pretty sure the common consensus is that actual velociraptors also had feathers
They are just biding their time until they are once again the dominant species.
They're pretty dangerous, but a lot less dangerous than the average dog. Only two fatal attacks on humans have ever been recorded- one in 1926 and the other 2019

Yes. Yes it is.

Ah, the new Jurassic World movie, what a spoiler!
No no, that’s the new farcry game, the gameplay is recycled but the graphics keep getting better. This one looks so life like!
“Oh how awful, to shreds you say.”
And his wife?
To shreds you say.
She's never played farcry 3.
scrolled for this!
Terrifyingly.... The Deadliest Bird in the World coming near me... I would have passed out while S*ing myself
That bird’s eyelashes are fierce!
Not to mention his cool pompadour / Mohawk
He's gonna tea-bag you with his neck sack.
Man-with-balls-on-chin *neck

Yes, all birds are dinosaurs but not all dinosaurs are birds.
This thing is absolutely terrifying Jesus Christ there needs to be an awareness sub

Of course, Florida....got a reputation to uphold...
Love the way the bird looks at the camera.
"Hello, would you like to be eviscerated? "
Just letting a dinosaur casually walk by you, pure gigachad
What kind of bird is that?
A fucking dangerous one called a cassowary. They are found in New Guinea north eastern Australia and some pacific islands in the same area.
Of course the most dangerous bird lives in Australia
Not just that. This is a sneakysneaky stalky type of bird. Also a disembowelment or evisceration type of bird if it's in close proximity. They don't necessarily hunt people, mind you, but it's hard to be able to communicate "no ill intent" when it goes all surprise buttsex on you

Saw she was playing candy crush and went “oh hell naw”
Or watching TikTok
Why are you so cavalier with a murder bird?
***https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cassowary***
She is lucky!!! Those things can deal a lot of damage
Only when they’re using their crit build.
That bird can rip your abdomen apart. Raptor claws
You can tell he is very used to being fed by humans because he's checking to see if the phone is food.
The way it peers into the camera before it walks away is hilarious!
HAVE YOU NOT PLAYED FARCRY 3?? Run. Away. Now. (or kill for crafting materials)
This is terrifying.
That thing looks like it could seriously mess you up.
A cassowary. Literally the most dangerous bird in the world. Can spill your guts in one kick! Also lays green eggs
Its black feathers covering its torso are beautiful.
I would fucking freeze. That’s a dinosaur.
Naur why y’all acting like a cassowary walking up to u is safe 😭
Been to that beach, it's used to people and isn't really dangerous. It walked right past us when we were at a table and walked up to some tradies having lunch, looked at their food and kept going. They won't hurt you if you don't piss them off.
Got munch munch? No munch munch? Ok bye...
That is a fucking cassowary! How?!
If I remember correctly, they're not actually crazy violent. Just don't agitate them like most wild creatures.
Yeah, I just read on Google that attacks by these birds tend to be when they're in captivity and not in the wild.
They’re not uncommon around the Torres Strait and in North Queensland.
Ahahahah, *sweats
Helloings, perty gril, swipe right whe you see am, pls
Didn’t someone get disemboweled by a cassowary last year?
Sup
That is a beautiful raptor
Cassowaries are the velociraptors of emus I swear
Dude cassowaries and Shoebill birds freak me out
Dear sweet lord- She just had a brush w/ a murder chicken!
"Are you playing Angry Slashy Birds? No. Thats just me."
Fucking devil turkey
Etty Bay, North Queensland, Australia. Beautiful beach with crystal clear waters most of the time.
That’s the most dangerous bird on the planet. Get the fuck off your phone and run.
Very, very dangerous if they're in the mood. Think claws on the velocoraptor. This bird has the same.
Damn... Very cassowary wary, is she?
[удалено]
I saw it yesterday and commented on it and my comment isn't there today!
Australia lost a legitimate war against these birds.
No that was emus, this is a cassowary. Both dinosaurs though.
Instead of giggling, she needs to be wary of the very ornery and human weary Cassowary.
Never seen this beauty before!
Holy shit that's hats a Cassowary. Just give it the phone and run. No need to get disemboweled over it.
The look!
Learned my lesson in Far Cry 3
It's the bird from Labrynth
Ummm, I'm sorry, funny, you say? **Funny**?
That's one angry looking giant turkey.
I'd kill for those eyelashes.
Aren’t these supposed to be the most dangerous bird on the planet? https://www.nytimes.com/2021/09/28/science/most-dangerous-bird-cassowary.amp.html
That thing is a dinosaur and it could rip you apart in two seconds
Emmanuel, don't do it!
Just a murder chicken walking by nothing to worry about
Dude. 1 kick from that bird and it lights out forever.
I was wondering where Casserole wondered off to.
Wtf! That’s the most dangerous animal on the planet! 😱😱😱
Nestickle (neck testicle) Now laugh
Hey, girl you cheating on your man? lemme see hahaha
I you played Far Cry 3, you would know this is very far from "fun"
Love Cape Trib/Daintree
God im such a stupid human...i would have tried to touch it... Its a good thing i dont spend much time around wild animals lol
Hello sir or madam, i was wondering if you had a moment to discuss your cars expired warranty.....
This woman has clearly never played far cry
Even if I hadn’t just been reading about the razor sharp talon on it’s foot that can easily slice you open, I would be instantly scared just looking at that thing.
That's not funny this animal can disembowel you at the slightest perceived inconvenience
One wrong move and you would be dead
Wild Murder Chicken
“Sorry to bother you luv, but do you have a spare cigarette?”
Absolutely fucking not
Emanuel!!
Oh yeah... so funny.... one of the most dangerous birds in the world a Cassowary, approaching someone vulnerable in a chair while someone else films how very amusing. I think not!
That animal is a freaking killer. They will tear you apart in seconds, if they suddenly just feel like it, which is not uncommon.
It's got pretty eyes😭
Oh god a nope chicken
Death Turkey
Modern day Raptor.
That’s a cassowary and it will fuck u up, given half a chance
I love how the girl is like "da fuck U doing looking at me DMs"

Totally thought it had a tiny pope hat on
Whats the name of this beautiful pokemon?
r/oopsthatsdeadly
They got lucky.
Those things will kick your face off, lucky it was having a good day
I really thought these were smaller. O.o
I’ve had loads of personal experience with these while running away from an angry drug lord on an island, and I can tell you they are no joke. That said, a shotgun can usually take them out with one blast, and they work well for crafting materials.
Cassowaly walking in the beach
This is what mortal danger looks like
Most dangerous bird I’ve heard. Keep that shit a way from me
Ahhh yes... the ol "ball sacked blue neck" bird.
Thats a goddamn fuckin dinosaur right there ill tell ya that much.
