a flightless one

Which beauty?



Answer: Cassowary

The Southern Cassowary is the third tallest and second heaviest living bird, smaller only than the ostrich and emu.Cassowaries have a reputation for being dangerous to people and domestic animals. Many internet entries about cassowaries state that they can disembowel a human or dog with one kick, with the long second toe claw cutting the gut open.
