Some of our US posters will no doubt confirm that "only in Florida"

Honey Badgers, did someone mention Honey badgers? . Honey Badgers: Masters of Mayhem is my favourite nature documentary ever. Even the name is the best name ever. Much like raccoons, I am torn between the twin impulse of wanting one as a pet, but also being glad that I'm at least 3,000 miles from them.Last edited by The Awesome Berbaslug!!!; 15-04-2019, 16:01.

Cassowaries turn out to be seriously dangerous and unpredictable. The National Zoo doesn't allow its keepers to be in the same enclosure with them at any time.
Yet another Aussie thing that can kill you.Last edited by Jah Womble; 15-04-2019, 15:55.

Hmmmm, a starling was trying to build a nest in my roof a few years ago. When we covered the space it was getting in through with wire mesh it spent days aggressively pecking away at it in an attempt to dislodge it.
I'm going no bigger that a blue tit.

On the birds / feathered dinosaur thing, it's worth remembering that that is in fact exactly what birds are.
My girlfriend had never heard of a cassowary before, so last night we had a look at a few videos on YouTube. There's one filmed by a couple on a beach in Australia, where a cassowary wanders out of a patch of trees and starts following them down the beach. The guy picks up a fallen tree branch to try to distract it and I'm thinking, 'no don't do that, don't make it feel threatened!' The cassowary walks right up the woman's phone (which she's holding on a selfie stick, as a shadow reveals at one point) and starts pecking it, and as the couple walk away it just keeps following them. On a couple of occasions it breaks into a trot to keep up and although I know everything was obviously fine because otherwise the video wouldn't have got uploaded to YouTube, I couldn't help panicking for them. I think it can only have been a young one because they grow 2 metres tall (or as either the BBC or the Graun put it, '6 feet, or 2 metres').

Built like a brick sh*thouse, it could outrun and catch pretty much anything. That soldier would've been disembowelled before he'd even cocked his rifle.

Particularly for anyone interested in the origins of Berbaslug's posting style.
