Omg I almost peed myself laughing at this. I grew up watching Steve's tv show. I LOVED IT. I quite regularly make SHES ANGRAY jokes when I see a pissed off animal. And he's right...if Steve won't fk with them...STAY THE HELL AWAY FROM THEM
Watching the Croc Hunter nervously cross a river filled with hippos was when I realized that hippos were nothing to fuck with. I've heard that he said it was the scariest shoot he ever did.
@The Holy Duck I don't blame him, hippos kill 3x as many people as Crocs. Even then, when a Crocs kills it's for food or defense, when a hippo kills it's because he just woke up and chose murder for the day.
I live in Australia, and I got to see the fairy penguins twice! Once on a school camp, another on a holiday. They were adorable, although it was a bit hard to see then after they went past the steps/seats we were sitting on, especially because it was at night, and they were rustling through dark foliage. But it's DEFINITELY worth the money.
Dude's one of the most entertaining nature channels that came our way. Nature, science, knowledge and comedy in a bite size entertaining way. I especially like the little known facts... still learning everyday even about what seem to be every day common animals! Keep it up bro!
Fun fact: humans used to hunt via unmatched endurance. Very similar to those wild dogs. We dont run very fast, but we are fucking unmatched in distance.
That's very interesting, as the human species originally came from Africa. I wonder if there's any connection between those African wild dogs and the human tendency to like dogs and use them as hunting partners.
Exactly. I remember watching San people hunting on tv: The designated hunter would run with a spear while the rest would carry water and help with tracking in case the animal hid. The idea behind the whole thing is that while the group as a whole might get tired by carrying all of that water, the hunter will be propelled further, like the last stage of a rocket, and can use the spear both to finish the animal and defend it from predators until the rest of the group arrives to carry the animal back. I know omnipresent sweat glands are pretty cool, but being able to carry stuff while running cannot be overrated.
Wild hogs are no joke. My mom accidentally hit one in an Avalanche, and it not only caved in the front of the car but the thing walked away completely fine. We even saw it a few days later and it recognized the car and charged it.
You forgot to mention that Cassowarys kung fu jump kick like Bruce lee when they attack, and as an Ozzie (Australian for those who are confused) I loved the the Steve Irwin bit
"I don't even have a fear of birds, I just have a fear of getting my throat split by an overgrown homicidal jungle goose that sounds like a Toyota on life support and indigestion." BRO I'M DEAD
As a Texan, living on a ranch, I can 100% say wild hogs are dangerous as all get out. I was charged by a sounder of about 25-30 with some huge sows(200lbs). Pull my hammy trying to run from them and hit the slick, muddy ground. I will never walk on my back pasture without a large firearm and big dogs. We trap them on our ranch and they nasty behind reinforced traps. I have seen some boars launch over a sounder of young ones just to escape. BTW, the damage they do to land and crops is horrendous.
Thank you! Plush toys have an IQ twice that of a koala (not a real bear). Granted, their IQ is still a single digit number, but have y'all seen what a koala do before, during & after it falls out of a tree? It's embarrassing.

On the croatian island i was born there are boars that roam in the higher more mountainous parts of the island and my grandfather liked to take walks in that part of the island but because of the boars he had to carry a pistol with him, but he got irritated having to hold it with him so he ended up welding the gun to his walking stick.

I’ve been friends with a particular Cassowary in a zoo since I was 8 years old in 1992… He’s questionably accessible in this amazing open rainforest & my long passed Grandma named him Frank. I still visit Frank often & we have a good time “booping” one another’s beaks in 2023. Apparently Frank could have ended my existence decades ago 🤣
That is.. an extremely chill Cassowary. They're usually territorial and are far from afraid to throw hands unprompted. Surprised nothing bad happen between you two across all those years.

I once had a nightmare I was being chased and terrorized by a group of huge birds with giant claws. I felt better when I woke up and realized it was just my imagination. Weeks later I went to a zoo somewhere in Ohio and saw the evil birds from my dream before my very eyes. They were real, and they were Cassowaries. Still messes with me to this day.
I went to a zoo once, and there was a mother with her daughter looking at the Cassowary pen. I heard her say to her daughter "You can get closer it's just a bird. It's not going to hurt you." Of all the birds she could have said that about...
I live in Australia and the only native animals that have given me grief are brush tailed possums and parakeets. They raid my fruit trees before the fruit can fully ripen. Possums are a lot more destructive than birds and their success infiltrating urban areas means they’re far from endangered and are probably the only native species I’d consider trapping and dispatching just to send a message to the other possums in my neighborhood who think that my yard can be their playground. If I had a full grown carpet python I’d definitely feed it caught possums. Wouldn’t feed them live though because they’re savage when using their claws and teeth to defend themselves
You know, when Rocco heard that noise from the cassowary, he looked around in great alarm. Rocco is a fellow birb, and he don't respond like that to cats or dogs (he barks at dogs actually).

That night we stayed at a country hotel and met a guy who showed us his scars from where he'd been disemboweled by one. The girls' faces went completely white haha.

While he's certainly great at what he does, speed isn't very relevant when the narration is scripted. Don't tell me you aren't noticing the cuts every 3 seconds.
I've worked a few months with a cassowary before. Incredibly bad tempered fellas and always feels like you're stepping into a dinosaur cage 😂 but amazing creatures, very fascinating and beautiful
As a Texan literally everyone I know has broken something on their car to hitting a boar at 60mph and in almost every case the bastard just walked it off and left
@@Tokuijin boar. Worst a deer can do is puncture a windshield. Boars are smaller but just as heavy if not heavier, so their density means they'll usually buckle crush points in your front end
I am from Italy and in Rome boars are like an extremely comical yet tragic problem and have been for years now , they block the traffic, casually walk in the city, eat garbage and for a period they basically hold an entire neighborhood hostage. In Rome right now there are about 5000 boars, but there are many more in the city nearby
I’ve watched the Blue Penguin Parade on Philip Island before while visiting family in Australia, and it was definitely one of the cutest things I’ve ever seen.
There used to be a small animal park near my house that had a Cassowary. I remember going to see it and it felt like I was being watched by a Velociraptor. That's not a bird. It's not a bird, it's a dinosaur with murder in it's eyes, ready to choose violence.
I have a Rhodesian Ridgeback and while visiting my grandparents in Florida he followed my grandfather into the woods one day. My grandfather always carries a rifle on his little walks cause you never know what you’ll find. Well seemingly out of nowhere they were charged by a wild boar and my dog and the boar start to fight. Luckily my grandfather was able to kill it and my poor dog made it out with only a ripped ear.

I mean he did say that 95% of Cassowaries would rather run away, than battle a perceived threat. There's also deadly inland taipans, box jellyfish, stonefish, blue-ringed octopus etc.
You're a very good narrator. No bullshit. U have become a master of your craft, and it's a privilege and honor to have witnessed your rise. Thank You, young man. We appreciate all of your efforts. Have a great weekend. 👍😎🤜🤛🤙💯✌
The cassowary sounds like an anxious psychopathic serial killer. Like, “COME ON, LET'S GO!” in the worst possible way.
Person: *minding their own buisness in their backyard*
Cassowary: Is that some kind of threat?
It's More: *Oh! Are You Approaching Me?!*
@@GodpraisethePALANTINE Instead of running away, you're approaching me?
I'm only trying to get into my house
Oh ho! Then go into your house
Cassowary: "Oy mate, you tryna start somethin?!"
“If Steve don’t f*** with them.... what makes you think I will?”
Wise words to live by tbfh
Nah, screw that. If I see a Manta Ray, you bet your ass I'mma throw hands.

Australian here. I took a group of German girls up to Northern Queensland and went hiking in a national park. I warned them about cassowaries, and they all made fun of me for being scared of a bird. That night we stayed at a country hotel and met a guy who showed us his scars from where he'd been disemboweled by one. The girls' faces went completely white haha.
Tell them your country (which kicked Japan’s butt in ww2) literally lost a war against another big scary bird species
Disemboweled and not dead? :0
@@Pluto137 Under certain conditions, like no ruptured organs, you can live remarkably long with your guts hanging out, max is 24 hours from what I have heard. However, you still shouldn't take those chances
@@voltekthecyborg7898 Yep. Plenty long to get to a hospital under the right conditions, so long as you've a car or can find a nice clearing with some phone signal to call the royal Australian flying doctor service.

Honestly tho

The video would be way too long.
Imagine you somehow tame all cassowaries in existence. Train them to attack whoever you point at. I don’t know how much power that gives you
Sounds like The Unsullied.
Probably more than the infinity gauntlet.
But then, you suddenly need to point at someone
@@teathesilkwing7616 Just point at your arch rival. Serves them right.
@@mumujibirb what if you get something in your eye so you try to take it out but the cassowary thinks your pointing at yourself
At least Cassowaries are 95% shy. I mean, that's the slimmest chance of survival that we have with this bird. ☠️

I wish he could speak slower so I could absorb the info he's telling me but I get that tiktok has a time limit
While he's certainly great at what he does, speed isn't very relevant when the narration is scripted. Don't tell me you aren't noticing the cuts every 3 seconds.
I never thought I would hear a statement of a “oversized, homicidal, jungle goose” in my life, but we are here now lmao.
That line sent me into a teary eyed laughing fit
That so called goose would make an excellent pet for Arnold Schwarzenegger
Some of the things he says makes me double take, but it makes sense. Lol
True, it is a very accurate description though xD

The reason y lions arent kings of the jungle is simple: they dont live in jungles, they live in savanas
Indian lions kinda do live in a jungle
@@qtsobb most lions dont but i get your point
Yeah and you can't call them king of the Savannah either
Or king of big cats

I've worked a few months with a cassowary before. Incredibly bad tempered fellas and always feels like you're stepping into a dinosaur cage 😂 but amazing creatures, very fascinating and beautiful
As a Texan literally everyone I know has broken something on their car to hitting a boar at 60mph and in almost every case the bastard just walked it off and left
Between hitting boar 🐗 or deer 🦌, which is worse?
@@Tokuijin boar. Worst a deer can do is puncture a windshield. Boars are smaller but just as heavy if not heavier, so their density means they'll usually buckle crush points in your front end
I’ve never seen them, thank goodness 😅
The fact you called it a "bastard" tickled me for some reason...
@person person No. I don't think Texas is really moose country.
When he talked about a male swan stealing an egg from a female to raise with a male partner, I nearly choked imagining the female's response.
Foster care
swan: thanks for the child now bye im heading off with my boyfriend
Female after laying the egg and hatching it: Say Sike RIGHT NOW!!
Female swan: I can't believe you've done this
Surrogate swans. When you just swan-a be a parent.

I am from Italy and in Rome boars are like an extremely comical yet tragic problem and have been for years now , they block the traffic, casually walk in the city, eat garbage and for a period they basically hold an entire neighborhood hostage. In Rome right now there are about 5000 boars, but there are many more in the city nearby
You could say they are a one pig apocalypse
Give them the emporor

I’ve watched the Blue Penguin Parade on Philip Island before while visiting family in Australia, and it was definitely one of the cutest things I’ve ever seen.
There used to be a small animal park near my house that had a Cassowary. I remember going to see it and it felt like I was being watched by a Velociraptor. That's not a bird. It's not a bird, it's a dinosaur with murder in it's eyes, ready to choose violence.

I have a Rhodesian Ridgeback and while visiting my grandparents in Florida he followed my grandfather into the woods one day. My grandfather always carries a rifle on his little walks cause you never know what you’ll find. Well seemingly out of nowhere they were charged by a wild boar and my dog and the boar start to fight. Luckily my grandfather was able to kill it and my poor dog made it out with only a ripped ear.
