Cassowaries are beautiful, colorful creatures.
The southern, or double-wattled cassowary has a shimmering black body.
Their necks are blue, turquoise and magenta, and they have a horned crest on top of their heads.
And these deadly birds could be bigger than you are.
The largest ones can be 1.8 m (6 ft) tall and weigh up to 73 kg (160 lb).
Cassowaries are living dinosaurs, descendants of the only dinosaurs who survived the Cretaceous mass extinction event 66 million years ago.
