Cassowary Fight

  • I witnessed this fight between two adult cassowaries in a National Park picnic area on the Atherton Tablelands. Events unfolded almost on dark.
    The individual on the left was hanging around in the dense rainforest on this side of the clearing. The second individual initially came from the forest from the right, crossed the clearing, and disappeared into the rainforest near where the first one was. It wasn't long before the intruder was chased out, and it retreated to the right edge of the clearing.
    A Mexican standoff ensued - both cassowaries stood in the open on their respective forest edges and took turns 'booming' repeatedly with heads down. The individual on the right then started moving gradually across the clearing, occasionally running short distances towards the other, then pausing and grooming.
    It moved closer and closer, until the events in the video unfolded...
