Allison 2,369 Posted August 22, 2019 Report Share Posted August 22, 2019 Denise, It is all heartbreaking to see big animals kept in this way, and I hate what is happening to our brother Wolf, but I have to admit that I did laugh. Although I wouldn't laugh in front of a Tiger, or a Lion, or a Cougar, Bear, or an Orangutan, or a Cassowary: "Cassowaries have a reputation for being dangerous to people and domestic animals. During World War II American and Australian troops stationed in New Guinea were warned to steer clear of them. In his 1958 book, Living Birds of the World, ornithologist Ernest Thomas Gilliard wrote: The inner or second of the three toes is fitted with a long, straight, murderous nail which can sever an arm or eviscerate an abdomen with ease. There are many records of natives being killed by this bird.[35]" Lovely feathers, though. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Sherab 2,337 Posted September 13, 2019 Report Share Posted September 13, 2019 Speaking of Dead Parrots and Cassowaries, did you know that much of what we know and theorize about dinosaurs is from modern birds - their descendants? I have a book recommendation: A Grown Ups Guide to Dinosaurs on audible. Ben Gerrod Very festive. Cassowary makes a great proxy for T rex vs a chicken 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
