🌏 Southern cassowary (Casuarius casuarius) The Southern cassowary, also known as the Double-wattled cassowary, Australian cassowary, or Two-wattled cassowary, is a large, flightless bird native to tropical rainforests in northern Australia, southern Papua New Guinea and Indonesia. It is characterized by its distinctive appearance, with a dark brown or black plumage, a prominent casque on its head, and long, sharp claws on its feet. Cassowaries are primarily solitary and territorial, and they are known for their aggressive behavior when threatened. 1.5 Flash (Edited) Conservation status: Endangered (EPBC Act) 📷: Photo by DaFranzos via Pixabay APSU
