Cassowary! That lovely bird can literally kill human. But it's main weapon isn't that handsome beak (and even not a beauty and nice voice):

Look close to that slim legs - each has three knives (is it a bird or a dinosaur?)

Moreover, cassowary is very aggressive, 3rd tallest (up to 2m/6.6ft) , 2nd heaviest (58.5kg/129lb) living bird. Speed - 50km/h (31 mph).
Do you still want to meet that bird? ))
Honestly to say, there are not much death cases, caused by cassowary. But they were, so, be carefull, exploring wild nature of New Guinea or northeastern Australia.
I met it on Bali island (Indonesia), gear - sony rx100m4.
(I also took a short footage, when I find time to process it I also share it with steemit fellows.
actually, it was shooting with girls and deers, but let's cassowary be first)

I appreciate any adequate critique and upvotes. Follow me to see other photo and video content made with camera, hands, and desire to make an art exploring the world.
