When Capital Punishment Works

[Jeff V]

Not sure why the park is offering condolences...this ought to be the default penalty for poaching.

[Paingod]

It's hard to disagree. Enter an ecosystem with the intent of harming it, become part of the ecosystem.

[Punisher]

Natural Selection at work.

You know what? Maybe you shouldn't bring exotic wildlife into your ecosystem, either. Especially not the ones that are essentially velociraptors.

Cassowaries are similar to emus and stand up to 6 feet tall and weigh up to 130 pounds, with black body feathers and bright blue heads and necks.

The San Diego Zoo's website calls cassowaries the world's most dangerous bird with a four-inch, dagger-like claw on each foot.

"The cassowary can slice open any predator or potential threat with a single swift kick. Powerful legs help the cassowary run up to 31 miles per hour through the dense forest underbrush," the website says.

That's okay. I often run 32mph when being chased by a cassowary.

That's okay. I often run 32mph when being chased by a cassowary.

Another website said they can jump 17'. I presume that you jump 18', or you wouldn't be here.

Well, there was that one time.................

[Daehawk]

Reminds me of an old public bathroom saying...."Dont bother standing on the seat, the cooties in here can jump 15 feet"

[Unagi]

He doesn't need to jump higher than the cassowary, he just needs to jump higher than his stepson.

Who now has only one leg.

[Isgrimnur]

Who now has only one leg.

That should put an end to his mall ninja tendencies.
