“Cassowary is considered as one of the most dangerous birds in the world. Whenever it was kept in a zoo, it had attacked and injured its caretaker seriously. The bird is capable of delivering fatal blows. This flightless bird is found in the rain forests of Australia and New Guinea.

It is actually a shy bird and likes to lead a calm and quiet life.
Only when irritated by human beings, it becomes furious. The dagger-like sharp claws can deliver a bone-breaking kick within a fraction of a second.”
