The cassowary is an odd yet ancient looking animal found within the rainforests of Queensland, Australia. Dubbed “the World’s Most Dangerous Bird”, it has a reputation for being aggressive and deadly to people. In this episode the A Team uses both historic as well as contemporary evidence to investigate that claim and determine once and for all if cassowaries truly deserve their formidable reputation.
