About These Birds
Hoopoe
오디새(후투티)는 얼룩말 무늬 날개와 분홍계피색 깃털, 검은 끝 화려한 볏을 지닌 구대륙에서 가장 독특한 새 중 하나다. 유럽·아프리카·아시아에 넓게 분포한다.
Southern Cassowary
The southern cassowary is often called the most dangerous bird in the world due to its powerful legs and dagger-like inner claw that can reach 12 cm in length. Despite this reputation, cassowaries are vital rainforest keystone species, dispersing seeds of plants that no other animal can. The purpose of their distinctive casque remains debated.
