    Thanks for the historical facts on Kookaburras in America. It took our forefathers decades to finally drive those monsters out of here. I believe over 2.5 -million people died during the Kookaburra Cleansing Era. --- Heros, all of them!

    My old mate was killed by such a bird in the late 70’s just outside of Sydney. Not enough, the predator also raped his dog and stole two cans of baked beans straight out of the pantry.
    Never underestimate these birds, they are very intelligent!!!

      They don't even eat the cans of beans. The evil little buggers put them on campfires and aim them toward populated areas. I've seen them prowling the streets afterwards devouring headshotted, bean basted humans.

      Bean basted humans? Oh, the horror!! I just hope they never team up with the magpies. It won't be safe to go outside anywhere!!

    When they gang up with flaming drop-bears, you know you're in trouble. Back away slowly, head down, never make eye contact...

  • @KEPoles
    @KEPoles 12 лет назад

    In the US, many keep specially trained dogs, labradors, to fend off such attacks. You often see people in the parks drilling and training their dogs to intercept attacking birds in flight using sticks, balls and frisbees. The dogs work well as I can't remember the last time any kookaburra attacks have been reported

  • @Bonswally
    @Bonswally 8 лет назад +4

    They might not kill you, but they are pricks.
    They used to smash seed pods on my grandfather's car for some reason. He was at war with them for years. Man that was funny.

    This is no joke. Y'all play the video again and pause at the close ups. You can see that look of mayhem in their beady little eyes, not to mention the "40 yard stare" that you only see in battle beaten Vets. This means these birds have likely been thru a good number of murderous rampages, so you don't wanna fuck with 'em, not even joking around cuz they don't play that shit. They're bad muthas!
    I'm glad I live in America. All our Kookaburra left 50 years ago...went to Australia.
