This bird is outrageous…
To begin, the cassowary is a towering bird as big as an emu or ostrich. But instead of having feathers like a bird, it has all these thin fur-like black feathers covering its body. It also has a blue face with this huge red turkey-like gobbler hanging from it. Not to mention, there is this huge plate on the top of its head that makes it look like a brontosaurus. Plus, the cassowary has these two huge nails (one per foot) on the inside of each foot that it uses as a dagger to hurt/kill anything that might bother it. It could kill a human with just one kick.
But the coolest thing about this creature is its call… It has the deepest call of any other bird on the planet, which sounds something like a deep bass beat from a hip-hop song.
I thought the platypus was crazy… check out the cassowary on youtube.com.
