My birthday happens to be on #WorldCassowaryDay, something that my friend Todd, who researches them, will never let me forget 😂❤️
It's #WorldCassowaryDay and another reminder that Australia & New Guinea have some uniquely interesting and dangerous creatures.

Happy #WorldCassowaryDay! We love these images of the Southern cassowary! This Cassowary is now considered a single species, but as you can see in these portraits from “A monograph of the genus Casuarius”, there can be a lot of variation.
