    The Most Terrifying Animal In Australia Was A Duck

    Demon ducks, or mihirungs, are some of the strangest and most mysterious birds to ever live. Although they coexisted with humans for thousands of years, we have very little information about how they acted, what they ate, and what all their strange features were for. As scientists continue to dig out and analyze fossils, we're getting an ever clearer picture. This is the mysterious world of the demon duck. Examining the nature of the beast. From apex predators to the planet's strangest creatures, Animalogic goes deep into the science, behavior, and biology of the animal kingdom, one species at a time.
