Every ten years, every Australian should be given a medal just for surviving in Australia.
Last reported death by a Cassowary is 1926.
They may attack people in self defence but SURELYthe Ostrich is a way, way more dangerous and lethal bird.
They kill people regularly in South Africa let alone throughout their entire range spreading throughout the dry regions of Africa and the Middle East.
Cannot accept that title you have given your documentary, it’s a poor attempt at garnering publicity for your work, however excellent your effort to film them is or was.
Am really surprised to not find any other comments to this effect in the space provided.
@Tristo Smitty snake or spider is enough for me…
@@martinam7806 I agree lol I fuckin hate spiders and Australia got some wild ones
Same for people in Africa, Asia, Canada…
Here in Australia birdwatching is an extreme sport.
😂🤣😄
“Australia is home to the worlds deadliest bird”
Australia is home to the worlds deadliest everything
Friends visit also my bird's RUclips cnl
Not true.. look at animals in Africa too. Ur dumb
We have cassowary in Papua New Guinea too
@@ramtrucks721 Outside of Mosquitos and perhaps hippos name one. Lions are not the most dangerous cats, there is no snake that can take the title as that goes to the Inland Taipan of Australia if goin by poison potency. You could make a strong case for the Black Mamba due to its aggressiveness and likeliness to bite and id give you that. But Australia is the king of deadliest species by far.
although every country harbors that most dangerous animal... Humans
The second she said "Australia" i responded in my mind "Of course it is..."
I thought your reply was “Oi mate!” Or “Fair dinkum” 😅
A Florida man had one for a pet and it killed him.
Why don't more people know about our beautiful social bees? Also known as stingless bees.
“The males are a bit taller than me.” My jaw dropped right then. I didn’t not think the bird was that big!
Me too😂😂like "holddd uppp, is it not the size of a turkeyyyy?"
right! and then she said the females are shorter than her around 6ft 😳
@@elleconfidential4291 no she said females are bigger - can be up to 6ft
I knew they were huge since they are my favorite bird:) There are other subspecies that are a bit smaller. There are people that raise them in Florida. Not sure if they ever get truly tame.
A year or two ago, Florida man had one as a pet, and the bird killed him.
It makes you think about how majestic and colorful dinosaurs might have been in the past.
I thought they were small like chicken but when she said they’re almost 6ft tall I shit my pants
Cassowaries and emus are basically Australia's version of ostriches.
Actually it's like an ostrich
Someone's i shit myself, sometimes i don't. It just Depends.
If you want chicken sized sharp birds, look at kiwis. One almost ripped a hole in my shorts
They got one at the LA zoo and yeap theyre 6ft tall ( im six ft in height) and that thing stared at me for like two seconds, not the friendliest stare lol
I would like to hire this bird to guard my packages from porch pirates.
That bird boutta betray you and be a menace to society one day
@@jinshim2536 I gonna let 'em sign a contract then
@@emmanuelplaza4435 I can somehow see this bird be able to sign it lmao
wow thats upping the anti on porch control. I would not even approach your door if she was standing guard. Even throwing a parcel from safety she would kick to shit out of it to make sure its dead. lol. Maybe not a good idea if precious items are expected hey.
ROFL. Good luck with that!
It looks like a giant deadly rave turkey.
It's 2 times bigger than turkey
@@humblewiz4953 Sometimes, they can be 3 times larger.
Maybe rave turkey meets Emu-raptor
Rave turkey 🤣
I guess everyone missed the word "giant".
We vacationed in the Daintree rainforest, and the Cassowary's were everywhere. On hikes they would follow us. Fortunately, there was thick tree growth and they rarely had a straight shot at us. For the most part, they were just curious. You did need to be aware of young ones. Mom was very protective. At the sight of a small one, its best to immediately walk back from were you came. There were also saltwater crocs. You really needed to be aware of those. Walking thru tall grass was not a good idea.
Mic drop
“Vacation” 🤣
I am stunned with this choice of a vacation spot.
I vacationed in the Daintree 5 years ago and had a guided tour on foot and bus for the day, I was unfortunate not to see a single one.
That would have been the dads. Cassowaries are raised by their dads, it was even in this video they said it.
Emma Napper: the cassowary does things u might not expect
Cassowary: juggles
The feral pigs in the video is a great metaphor 4 "the wyt man"

We have it in my country too, Papua New Guinea not only in Australia.
I could literally feel those guttural sub-bass grunts through my headset.
I had to replay that part, I'm definitely running if I hear that sound anywhere. I don't even need to see what is making that sound.
@@chidiv22 lol thats hilarious!
That call is so deep. I never heard a bird like that before.
Shoebill bro
@TruBluHeeler No, that is what they sound like. Emus make a similar noise as well I believe.
If you ever wondered if dinosaurs would kill the shit outta of us lol, well with this dinosaur you have your answer lol
These animals are nothing compared to a dinosaur. The T-Rex would have this bird for lunch.
@@badgerden7080 this bird has larger talons abd legs than a Velociraptor. It's a direct link to a transition species.
That’s not a dinosaur. The word dinosaur means terrible lizard. That’s a bird not a lizard. Also I believe the ostrich is a far more dangerous bird than this one. I’ve only heard it’s the deadliest but I never seen it do a thing. Ostriches have attacked people so until I see it do what they are claimed to do then I will just look at them like any other ordinary bird.
@@juniorsir9521 You can hold off an ostrich with one hand if you know the technique and they are not predators. Dinosaurs are not lizards even if the name suggests otherwise. Birds are direct descendants of flying dinosaurs, reptiles are cold blooded whereas dinosaurs and birds are warm blooded. More you know.
@Tomato Ketchup Md. You believe in dino😂saurs
"...the key to their success is parental care". Hmmm, there's a lesson to be had here I think.
That does not sound very progressive. The state and FAANG must take care of all your thoughts and responsibilities.
Dad seems to be a pretty liberated male, for such a relic from another era...
What's the lesson ? We have houses and raise our children. They don't send their eggs to bird school. The lesson is you're an idiot
@@Jordan-kx5ev Wow. Just…..wow.
@@Jordan-kx5ev if I’m not mistaken, and I don’t want to speak for anyone else, I believe that the lesson is that children need their parents to raise them and teach them correctly to survive and thrive, no matter the species.
"People think that Australia is full of deadly creatures - and it is.."
Case closed.
I don't care what you say, that's a damn dinosaur.
They are literal dinosaurs so yes
After roughly 230-250 million years, dinosaurs have dominated at a planetary level, survived mass extinctions several times, and survived long enough to live beside us in our modern world. They are a true testament of evolutionary success and survival. It's so incredible that these amazing, beautiful animals are still here. Not enough people understand just how magnificent and spectacular that fact really is.
Yes. You're right. If the forests were protected since that long, life in it has been protected too I suppose. That makes this bird an actual living dinosaur.
Yes sir, it is the oldest bird on the planet. Basically a dinosaur.
They are not dinosaurs but are related.
Dinosaurs didn't die out, they just live in Australia. Those things even sound like a prehistoric beast.
How do you know what Dino's sound like

Username checks out
Based on DNA? Bones mean nothing alone. What evidence besides bones is there? I have tried to look for this and the only evidence people give is fossils which is not strong enough evidence. Not saying they cant be dinosuars but I would like to know why people think this besides just bones. (Bones can be misleading as the elephant shrew looks like a shrew but in fact DNA shows itnis no where near related to shrews or even mice but is in fact closer to elephants of all animals)
A cassowary has a oviraptorid crest, dromeosaurid claws, vibrant colours, amazing booming sounds and is huge.
If the cassowary isn’t the coolest bird then I don’t know what is
The shoebill is a prehistoric looking bird , very graceful and on par with cassowary look department , you should check it out.
They are certainly the coolest looking birds.
I'd rank Hyacinth Macaws higher than Cassowaries, they're badass blue also have the ability to fly.

Not all dinosaurs are birds, but all birds are dinosaurs. The cassowary, especially so.
Imagine if the t Rex actually sounded like a chicken
@@tzikronanimofagen8741 well, I have interesting news for you. According to this video, T-Rex would have sounded like ... a gigantic cassowary.

You're a clever girl! 👧😅😅😅🤣🤣🤣😂😁
ruclips.net/video/vAqGOHXcyvg/видео.html
Their color makes one wonder how the dinos were colored.Must’ve been a broad spectrum,to say the least.
I imagine that some of the theories about what bird dinosaurs looked like are based on what the cassowary look like.
Not all
Nature has all sorts of colors from bright to bland
Well modern dinosaurs (all birds) have bright feathers so more than likely ancient ones did too.
I'm glad the Chinese never regarded the horns on their heads as medicinal or a carving material.
No. but they brought invasive species there, like pigs.
Don't give them ideas...
It went from filming the most dangerous bird to reasons why boar should be killed in Australia
When I was a boy we had one as a pet she was lovely.
A national kill a boar day in Australia is coming soon folks
Australia always has a problem with animals lol
It's much tastier than pigs so it's a win-win.

@@Angeck i saw what u did there xD
Well the "chirp" kinda sounds like a hard swallow... at least that's what I'm telling myself, it's just digestive noises, yeah... but the "call" I can't sugarcoat. It sounds like a demon laughing.
That's an awesome description 👏 🤣 🤣 🤣
There is a beast sleeping in this bird's silent personality.
Fascinating. I had no idea the Cassowary grew so tall. I always knew they could kill but wow, they're so elegant and beautiful.

The Daintree Rainforest seems to be the closest remnant we have of Mesozoic Era times.
Nop
I love that sequence with cassowary in 7 worlds, 1 planet! It brings beautiful memories. Last year I spent week and a half in Daintree on two different occasions and I was lucky enough to spot and observe two cassowaries for a few hours. They are absolutely amazing prehistoric dinosaur-like looking creatures. Surrounded by Daintree which on its own looks like rainforest from Jurassic period the whole experience is something extraordinary. I also had one of the best encounters with wild animal back then. As I was standing on a boardwalk and watching cassowary for some time, after roughly two hours cassowary approached me and sit right next to the boardwalk. I was standing right above it, and that magical connection with such an extraordinary animal for a short time is something I'll never forget!
“There’s too many there, they’re messing up the land”.. hmm I wonder what other animals think of us 😂
Makes no sense ?
@@porkch0p33 it means. There are many Hoomans running around wrecking the Natures.
Ps. She lost me at “claws longer than a velociraptor”. 😭
She lost me when she started talking and didnt stop
a cassowary slashed a boys throat with it's claw. the boy was trying to hunt it with a rifle.
I mean, it is a dinosaur. That's what many dinos looked like; raptors had feathers for example.
I came face to face with this amazing creature in '92. I froze and didnt move a muscle for about 10mins. Until it moved on with its baby.
Maybe it thought you were the baby's other parent they were out looking for so they could get a break from minding the baby.... But then realised you were not and just moved on their way...
I saw two. One at the side of the road from a bus !!!
Another in a chunk of coastal forest while walking.
The thing that struck me was its size, and the claws, one which was as long as my fingers (and I'm 6'4")
So are they really deadly then?? Sounds like ostriches would be more dangerous or intimidating.
@@nakeithasevere4074
They slash with their feet when cornered. With a three inch claw that would disembowel a human.
I believe in Papua new Guinea where they are sometimes hunted, they have killed people occasionally.
Good thing you didn’t move, they are quite fast if I remember correctly

Right! You can't tell me that's not a dinosaur.
Listen to the clicking type noise at 3:37 tell me thats not the noise from jurrasic park, i wonder if they actually researched that or stumbled upon it by accident.
Imagine the first people to reach Australia in a canoe. There was megafauna there then that is long since extinct. They must have felt very low on the food chain.

All the animals in the Far Cry games were so insanely aggressive, constantly attacking you.
So, an accurate representation of Australia, no doubt.
I came here looking for Far Cry comments.
Thank you.
I'd rather watch a video about the bird not some narration story about her journey and her credentials. Next!
That video was already uploaded. This is the behind the scenes. Luckily, on the internet, there is room for both videos.
Then go watch that video. This ones literally ABOUT how they filmed the bird, not about the bird alone. Could’ve just searched that yourself instead of complaining.
Hence why it’s titled “FILMING..”
An elderly man in South Florid tried to keep one as a pet. It eviscerated him.
of course he was from florida
Flori-Duh 🙄
Deserved it.. cassowary are precious and protected.
I live in Florida and am not offended, we have many crazy people here. I do not support keeping these beautiful animals in captivity.
@@thegoodnessness yeah, somebody deserved to be gutted because they kept a pet. What is wrong with you
I was attacked by a cassowary, luckily a wire fence between me and the bird. Instand hatred (from the bird, not me).
Scary stuff for sure
Did it try to kick or peck you in the attack or did you not hang around for neither? At six feet tall, that’s a big enough bird to avoid when possible.

No one knows what dinosaurs sounded like. The best we have are estimations based on bone structure, shape and size where the vocal chords would have been located, but since we have never actually recovered a specimen with the chords still intact...
I'm going tomorrow to the Daintree Forest for the first time, I was super excited, but after seeing this video I'm super hyped up. I really hope invasive species get controlled asap, they're destroying one of the most unique wildlife in the world. Thanks for the video
Be careful, aware and respectful. Startling a cassowary is dangerous. They are shy but can be aggressive when cornered. People have been maimed and killed. Make some noise, not too much and walk with a semblance of situational awareness. This is their territory and they will defend it.
Remember always: you are an invasive species!
@@stefanmargraf7878 Absolutely correct. Humans are small in the scheme of time.. That is why we Aboriginal people do not hunt them. They are sacred for a reason. They are regarded as Elders and have their own Dreaming.
@@charki40 THX. It makes me proud to get an answer by a australian native! The people of BBC should have a talk with the aboriginals in that regard.
2 human deaths associated with this bird. Both incidents involve teenage boys taunting and harassing the bird. Throwing stones, chasing, trying to ride. Incidents were about 90 years apart. I think both deaths involved the bird slashing open the throat with a well timed kick. Don't harass animals. Leave them be.
Dude that's literally the dinosaur from UP I'm so proud of you BBC, you freakin did it!

@@joannemates6367 If you play Far Cry 3 cassowaries are featured in the game & will attack if you get too close just like in real life 😏
I came across a Cassowary in a National Park in Far North Queensland. It wasn't full grown and seemed curious about us because it shadowed us for about 15 minutes. Of course we were cautious, knowing their propensity to attack, but it was really one of the most magical meetings of our wildlife I've ever had. We were more fortunate than the tourist who was attacked a few weeks later by an adult. He was badly injured but survived.
I saw this animal in person inside Daintree Rainforest in 2015. My group and I read an informative signpost before, informing tourists to stand still when the bird approaches - It worked fine!

I used to play it when I was younger but I always fucked around more than I played the actual story
In Papua New Guinea, the cassowary is a feared bird. The peoples traditionally made daggers out of cassowary leg bones and carves designs into these bone daggers.

Deadly. But not that bad. The snakes are "deadly" But they really only bother with you if you block their way, tread on them or get close to a nest. I've lost count how many times i have walked within a few feet of one before noticing and they either just moved away or just laid still until i passed.

@@cooperthecat5263 :)
I’m assuming that bone on the head is for ramming…& that it’s pretty effective. I have a small flock of guinea fowl & they’ve got a similar bone on their heads. It is used for ramming and there’s stories out there about guineas ramming and killing roosters in mixed flocks where they’re kept with chickens. I know one thing…when my guinea hen puffs up, puts her head down and starts running at my pet turkey hen (about 4x bigger than the guinea hen), the turkey flees like her life depends on it!😂
Yes and they can be very dangerous. Everything here is trying to kill you. Cheers, from Country Victoria. Australia. 🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺
Ive never heard or seen “ramming” behaviour from this bird. Lived in OZ 50years. They dont live in flocks. Have no natural predators- too big. Except humans.
@@sableempire9654 Interesting. I’m wondering what it’s used for then. Typically nature doesn’t evolve non-useful appendages/parts.🤔 EDIT to add: I looked it up. The bone on the cassowary’s head IS used for ramming. It rams trees to knock down fruit.
It's like the same material our fingernails and rhino horns
I want to be reborn as a Casuary, then my Dad will take care of me.

This is video about the filming of the bird, not the bird itself
