The cassowary can slice open a person with a single swift kick.

While we’re on the subject, can we talk about how dumb Pandas are? Like they are extremely unintelligent creatures. They can’t figure out how to eat or mate. Apparently if you try to like, feed a panda some bamboo that you picked yourself it will not recognize it as food.

Today I read an article that showed this dead-eyed kangaroo, standing over a dog he was drowning for fun, looking like a psychopathic, roided-out mutant rabbit. No one is talking about this. On the contrary, we tell our kids that kangaroos are adorable and have cute baby pouches. What's with the kangaroo lobby selling us cute cartoons while our allies down under live in terror of these beasts? I can't be the only American to have undergone this slow and shocking realization that everything I'd been told about kangaroos is a lie.

We've all been lied to. Clearly kangaroos can't be trusted. This jacked one seems pretty diabolical.

Don't fall for it. More misinformation from the pro-kanga lobby designed to lull you into passivity...

Natural selection has been trying so hard, but we keep pulling them back time and time again. I love them though. There is nothing cuter!

What do they smell like?

Also ostriches are psycho.

Penguin colonies smell like the bottom of a birdcage that has no been changed for weeks.

Once the Roos leave the pouch the pouch gets filled with WMD’s. Dick Cheney was all over this 20 years ago but instead decided to invade Afghanistan because he confused it with Australia. “Just some shit hole country that begins with an A.”

Seriously, the are such dumb creatures. I don't understand how they evolved. They are destined to go extinct. China can have them all back.

Here are the animals REALLY most likely to kill you in Australia
By Gemma Chilton • March 22, 2016

Horses and cows and dogs, oh my!

https://www.australiangeographic.com.au/topic

Back in 2011, Australia’s National Coronial Information System (NCIS) released its most recent report into the trends and patterns surrounding animal-related deaths in Australia, covering the first decade of this century.

Of the 254 confirmed and reported animal-related deaths during that 10-year period, horses, cows and dogs were the most frequent culprits, accounting for 137 deaths.
Horses (including ponies and donkeys) were the most ‘deadly’ animal in Australia, causing 77 deaths in 10 years, mostly related to falls. Cows (including bulls and cattle/bovine) accounted for 33 deaths – 16 by causing motor vehicle accidents, the rest by crushing, piercing or ‘unknown’. The majority of the 27 deaths caused by the third biggest killer, dogs, were from attacks, with those deaths mostly occurring in children under four years old and in elderly people.

Shoot the messenger?
In case you hadn’t cottoned on yet, it turns out most of our perception of risk is somewhat out of whack when it comes to judging the likelihood of a deadly encounter with certain animals (what’s scarier, surfing near a river mouth at dawn, or visiting a friend’s dairy farm?).

“Our perceptions of the probability of an event has been shown to depend on its availability – how easily we are able to bring such events to mind,” explains Professor John Dunn, from the University of Adelaide’s School of Psychology.

“Events appear on the news and/or are talked about because they are noteworthy, unusual, or dramatic. As a result, these kinds of events are more available and hence we overestimate their probability of occurrence,” he says.

Honestly, I will join the chorus: they are just so very, very dumb.
