Episode 87 - Pelicans, Cassowaries, and Cuckoos Oh My! by Mx. Maxwell

Fall in love with Australia's two largest (and flightless) birds. This episode explores what makes these big birds so special, from their impressive size and strength to the important job they play in the Australian landscape.Luca is an 12-year old nature lover and birder who lives in Naarm (Melbourne) and feels most at home in nature. His fondness and respect for wildlife was first inspired by Sir David Attenborough's programs. Luca's fascination for birds began through art at the age of 7, when he started drawing birds and devouring bird identification books. This ignited a passion for birdwatching and bird photography. For Luca, drawing and photographing birds continue to be central in getting to know Australian birds and those living in other parts of the world. Luca carries his passion for birding where ever he goes, whether he is camping, hiking, surfing or on a road trip. He loves sharing his knowledge of birds with others as much as he enjoys learning from birders he meets on his nature adventures.

El cassowary o casuario austral es un ave gigante que habita los bosques tropicales del norte de Queensland. Su labor de “jardineros” es fundamental para mantener vivos a estos ecosistemas. Sin embargo, estas majestuosas aves están en peligro de extinción y de llegar a desaparecer, con ellas podrían también desaparecer estos bosques, de aproximadamente 180 millones de años y catalogados como Patrimonio de la Humanidad.

Summary: “You eat like a bird!” We're sure you've heard this before and may have even said it, but if you knew what we know, you'd probably never say it again! Join Cheryl and Kiersten as they talk about some of the strange things birds eat!   For our hearing impaired listeners, a transcript of this podcast follows the show notes on Podbean.   Show Notes: “Cassowaries: Crucial to Rainforest Ecology,” The University of Waikato, https:blog.waikato.ac.nz/bioblog/2009/12/cassowaries-crucial-to-rainfor/ www.allaboutbirds.org American Bird Conservancy, https://abcbirds.org Our email address, please reach out with comments, questions, or suggestions:  thefeathereddesert@gmail.com   Cheryl: Intro          Have you ever heard the expression “You eat like a bird.”  What did that really mean?  I personally never got it, but I heard many times.  If the person who coined that phrase really knew what birds ate, I don't think that it would have been said at the dinner table.  Today let's look at the weird things' birds eat and a little about how they do it.          So, there's the Phainopepla that consumes mistletoe berries, and a lot of them; this bird can do this because they have a specialized digestive tract to accommodate this particular berry.  Then there is the American Robin, that changes it digestive system to be able to adjust to the transition from protein-rich invertebrates in spring and summer to fruits and berries in winter.          Kiersten:  Worm-Eating Warbler This warbler is small, rather drab in color with a black and buffy head stripes on its flat head.  This flat head helps it to get into all the nooks and crannies of the forest floor where it consumes caterpillars and slugs, insect larvae but not earth worms like the name suggest.  This warbler has a beautiful song that helps it live up to the warbler part of its name even if its drab in color.          Cheryl: Shore birds and Sapsuckers          Birds like the Black-necked Stilt, and the American Avocet are shore birds that eat mollusks such as clams, oysters, snails, and slugs found in the muddy water along the edges of creeks, rivers, lakes, ponds and irrigated fields and agricultural fields.          Then there are birds that feed on the mucus of plants and trees, namely sap.  These birds are woodpeckers, waxwings, kinglets, and warblers which all have a component of sap/mucus in their diet.          Kiersten: Red-tail Hawk and Great Horned Owl          Rattlesnakes and Red-tail hawks, two very capable predators, but if an adult red-tail hawk locates a rattlesnake out in the open, it's a dead snake crawling.  Rattlesnakes are a favorite meal for this hawk.   Red-tail hawk doesn't sneak up on a rattlesnake, if it did that it would actually give the rattler the advantage.  Instead, the hawk flies down and perches right in front of the snake.  There by taking the lead in what is often called the “dance of death.” The hawk will fan out its feathers, exhibiting its 5 ft wing span. In response, the rattlesnake will rattle it's tail in a warning, and will puff up to look bigger and more formidable. This might work. If not, the hawk will then hop or walk around, essentially trying to divert the snake's attention. This will likely trigger the rattlesnake to snap open its mouth and display it 5-7” long fangs, and with the coiling motion, it will lunge forward. Then the hawk hops onto the snake and end the snake's life. Red-tail hawks don't eat the head of the snake therefore avoiding ingesting any venom. Great Horned Owls have excellent night vision and a poor sense of smell, which helps it deal with one of its favorite meals- skunk.  So, when you are out in the wilds of Great Horned Owl habitat and you smell skunk, but don't see one you could be in the area of a Great Horned Owl nest. Cheryl: Scott's Oriole and Western Tanager and the Cassowary          Scott's Oriole is a fruit eater, not only do these birds eat dagger cactus fruit, but also cultivated fruits such as apricots, peaches and figs.  The Western Tanager lives off of insects such as bees and wasps in the spring and summer.  Then in the winter months it will enjoy berries…all kinds like hawthorn, wild cherries, elderberries, blackberries, mulberries and service berries.          All the above-mentioned birds may be found in our state of Arizona, but there is one fruit eater that lives in Australia and Papua New Guinea, the Cassowary.  This bird is the third largest bird in the world with an adult standing up to six feet tall.  These birds live in the rainforests and are considered keystone species because of their role as a major seed dispenser of up to 238 rainforest plant species.  Over a 100 of these plants' species depend entirely on Cassowaries to dispense their seeds.          In some cases, cassowaries are the only bird to be able to digest the fruit of certain plants such as the Cassowary Plum.  This fruit contains a sap that is poisonous to humans and most other animals.          The Cassowary's unique digestive system which is short and fast,  to digest the fruit.  The Cassowary plum is an important food source for the Cassowary, and in turn the bird than distributes and helps germinate the seeds of the plant. Cheryl: Closing          Now doesn't this make you think twice about that old expression” You eat like bird”.  Really do you?    

Ahoy aviators! Today we're looking at all those birdy bastards that pose a threat to human life. Cassowaries, ostriches and magpies oh my!

You might think the first bird species that humans raised in captivity would be a relatively small one, like a chicken. But evidence suggests that people in New Guinea reared the cassowary, often called the world's deadliest bird, as much as 18,000 years ago, long before the domestication of chickens. The remains of cassowary eggs and bones at archaeological sites in New Guinea indicate that people gathered the eggs, possibly allowing the more mature eggs to hatch into chicks.More info and transcript at BirdNote.org. Want more BirdNote?

It's an odd news day!! Big Guy joins us for a fun episode. Cassowaries, pickles, novice meth cooks… what else could you ask for?

The two most dangerous birds on the planet are probably taller then you: Ostrich and cassowary. Both member of the ratite clan. What's a ratite? Flightless birds (excluding the penguin of course). There are actually five ratite species: ostrich, cassowary, rhea, kiwi, and emu! But what makes them flightless? Why are they flightless? What's the point?Ostriches, the African giant flightless bird, could kill you easiest (especially compared to the kiwi) as they are the largest bird who have also been known to kill lions with a simple swing of their mighty backwards legs. Ostriches have a lot of danger about them.Cassowaries, although not as large as an ostrich, have killed a human. But they aren't as tall! They do have terrifying red eyes and a deep call that feels like they are ripping out your soul. But they live in the fun world of Northern Australia, New Guinea and surrounding islands! So I think its safe to say they can be chill...if you respect them.  So don't be a dick to animals.Scientific namesOstrich: Struthio camelusSouthern Cassowary: Casuarius casuariusNorthern Cassowary: Casuarius unappendiculatusDwarf Cassowary: Casuarius bennettiFollow the Podcast on Social Media!Instagram @wafpodcasttiktok @wafpodcastEmail: wafpodcastexplicit@gmail.comFacebook: "Weird Animal Facts: Explicit" Support the show (https://www.ko-fi.com/wafpodcast)

This scaryanimal looks like it could be related to a dinosaur, but turns out it actuallyis.This animal lives in Australia and Papua New Guinnea,as well as other small islands near them. They live in dense rainforests andswamp areas and spend their time foraging for food. Even though cassowary seemslike aggressive animal they don't actually eat that much meat. they preferfallen fruit, fungi, and small invertebrates and vertebrae.Despite being quite big and scary, the cassowaryhas a few predators. Their threats include crocodiles, pythons, dingoes, humansand quolls.Although,they do have ways to protect themselves. They can run up to 30 miles per hourand are also quite strong birds who kick, peck, and head butt their predator.Cassowaries are actually quite necessary to their habitat because they spreadseeds through their dung.The reason these birds stand out so much maybeis due to their striking resemblance to dinosaurs. But the thing is, they'rerelated to dinosaurs. They have long sharp claws, heavy black plumage, brightblue and teal neck and head feathers, and the well known casque on the topof its head.for wild suzhou i'm palm tree and thank you forlistening.

Colourful feathers on dinosaurs and their descendants. Sleek, fast, with sharp claws and iridescent feathers, Cassowaries are almost like dinosaurs. How do the cassowaries manage to get that special sheen on their feathers? What gives cassowaries they're menacing iridescence? Long flowing rainbow feathers, all wrapped around a small creature the size of a duck, hardly a terrifying image of a dinosaur. What connects a small duck like dinosaur with a hummingbird?

Hello to you, you word nerd! Welcome to today’s episode of An Assemblage of Grandiose and Bombastic Grandiloquents. Get your wings out, but don’t go anywhere, because today we are exploring the word ‘cassowary’.Cassowaries are a flightless species of bird that are native to the tropical forest of New Guinea, East Nusa Tenggara, the Maluku Islands, and northeastern Australia. They are characterised as a ratite without a keel on their sternum bone, and are the third-tallest and second-heaviest living bird in the world, smaller only than the emu and ostrich. They have often been labelled ‘the world’s most dangerous bird’ as they are capable of inflicting serious or fatal injuries to both dogs and humans.But back to the language! Cassowary has been identified as French or Dutch from 1610, but originates from the Malay ‘kasuari’. ‘Suari’ in Malay, is translated as ‘island’. In English, the only other derivative is a tree - ‘casuarina’. Casuarina is a genus of 17 tree species native to Australia, India, southeast Asia, islands in the Pacific Ocean and eastern Africa. Interestingly, the derivative alludes to the similarities between the bird's feathers and the plant's foliage, as they do look quite similar! However, in current standard Malay, the casuarina tree is called ‘rhu’.The genus Casuarius was erected by the French scientist Mathurin Jacques Brisson in his Ornithologie published in 1760. Today, there are only three species of casuarius alive. The fourth, Casuarius lydekkeri, or the pygmy cassowary, is now extinct. The type species, the southern cassowary, is scientifically referred to as casuarius casuarius.

In this week's show, we watched Hellboy, since apparently nobody did , and tell you about it so you can image what it might have been like. We also wonder how far a slaughter of Cassowaries can go in controlling the world.

What made the internet angry this week? You can now get fired for liking tweets. Idealistic college students are RUINING AMERICA. Not traumatized enough? You can now inherit it through your genes. Satan scores one against the Notre Dame cathedral. Dale and Derek have STRONG OPINIONS about The Lion King remake. The best Disney movie ever made. Cassowaries are fucking terrifying and I cannot understand why anyone would keep one as a pet. Fuck Australia. We finally settle cats vs. dogs, and it's not even close. We get our first photo of a black hole and it's somehow a woman's fault. The opposite of Dale is Nigel Crane. Hobbit fetishes. All that and more, on the podcast you're currently listening to!

Motorists on the Kuranda Range have reported an increase in adult cassowaries with chicks walking on the road. Perry Marshall from Kuranda Rainforest Journeys explains the attraction for them at the moment.

In this episode of Wild Lives by Faunographic we’re speaking to Dr Graham Lauridsen, who gets up close and extremely personal with the southern cassowary – a giant, flightless bird that’s endemic to the Australian tropical rainforest. Known for being super aggressive and towering at 180cm tall, cassowaries are in the ratite family of birds – so they date back all the way to the Cretaceous period of 60 million years ago (yep, they’re pretty much living dinosaurs – and have the massive talons to match). But what’s it like to live alongside these dangerous but endearing birds – and to rescue them when they run into trouble? Dr Graham shares the stories of some of his most memorable rescues and introduces us to one of his wild favourites, a bald cassowary called Reggie.

We chat with Ingrid Marker about how large bodied dogs, in particular hunting dogs trained to kill pigs, are lethal to the cassowary population who are already up against it with their disappearing habitat, roads, and fragmented landscapes.Mentioned in podcast & for more information: https://www.facebook.com/cassowarykeystoneconservation/Friends of the Earth FNQ:https://www.facebook.com/FriendsoftheEarthFNQ/?eid=ARCb4vsVEy2zw6TrMYE9e...Australian Panel of Experts in Environmental Law/APEEL: http://apeel.org.auBirdlife Australia: http://birdlife.org.au

Meet Ingrid Marker from Mission Beach  Queensland who lived alongside endangered cassowaries becoming known as a cassowary whisperer. Horribly, all the cassowary families she knew were killed by dogs. Now Ingrid calls for new laws to control roaming dogs. The campaign to save the cassowary is part of the Place You Love Alliance, which asks for a new generation of national laws that work to protect and restore our natural environment.Crocodiles not for Profit:The Kattar Party have introduced the Safe Water Bill that wants to see crococile numbers greatly reduced through culling .At the public hearing in Cairns Gudju Gudju; Tribal elder of the Gimuy Walubara Yidinji people - traditional owners of the Cairns area - describes  traditional approaches to crocodile management and attitudes toward crocs: "They do not see you as tourists; they see you as food. They have the God-given right to be there and to eat you if you are going to go into their territory. The thing is that people are not silly. We read signs that say you should not swim here because of crocodiles. If you go in and get bitten by a crocodile,  is it the crocodile's fault? I do not think so. It is the human who cannot read the sign who has the problem."                                                                                                                             Gudju GudjuLinks:Facebook: Cassowary Keystone ConservationPlaces you love campaignCairns and Far North Environment CentreTranscript of Safer Waterways Bill 2018 public hearing in Cairns 27/08/18Earth Matters #1156 was produced by Bec Horridge

Dogs are running wild in the rainforests of North Queensland, killing wildlife.  But one woman stood up to them
