They then studied 140 cases of cassowary mortality and found that motor vehicle strikes accounted for 55% of them, and dog attacks produced another 18%.
Adult southern cassowaries are 1.5to(-)1.8 m tall, although some females may reach 2 m, and weigh 58.5 kg.
The cassowary has claws up to 125 mm long.
He instead modelled the skeletal mounts after the cassowary and wallaby, and put the spike that had been on the nose firmly on the thumb.
All cassowaries have feathers that consist of a shaft and loose barbules.
