A real ‘angry bird’

You know angry birds? Well, this one exists in real-life. Meet the cassowary. This particular bird looks more like a feathered velociraptor from Jurassic Park than your occasional black bird. The cassowary is an extremely territorial flightless bird that is known to kick at people with a knifelike claw on each foot. Its hot temper is probably the reason why it hasn’t gone extinct like the dodo.
Don’t take these karate birds too lightly, because they have been known to disembowel people while kicking them with their massive claws.  That’s why caretakers at the zoo have to carry riot shields to protect themselves from a vicious onslaught of the mighty cassowary.

So, whats for dinner during Thanksgiving?
