Cassowary

This scaryanimal looks like it could be related to a dinosaur, but turns out it actuallyis. This animal lives in Australia and Papua New Guinnea,as well as other small islands near them. They live in dense rainforests andswamp areas and spend their time foraging for food. Even though cassowary seemslike aggressive animal they don’t actually eat that much meat. they preferfallen fruit, fungi, and small invertebrates and vertebrae. Despite being quite big and scary, the cassowaryhas a few predators. Their threats include crocodiles, pythons, dingoes, humansand quolls. Although,they do have ways to protect themselves. They can run up to 30 miles per hourand are also quite strong birds who kick, peck, and head butt their predator.Cassowaries are actually quite necessary to their habitat because they spreadseeds through their dung. The reason these birds stand out so much maybeis due to their striking resemblance to dinosaurs. But the thing is, they’rerelated to dinosaurs. They have long sharp claws, heavy black plumage, brightblue and teal neck and head feathers, and the well known casque on the topof its head. for wild suzhou i’m palm tree and thank you forlistening.
