How It Can Kill You

The cassowary has the ability to run at speeds of up to 50 kilometers per hour, shredding through branches, sharp leaves and the elderly with its bitchin helmet (called a casque). Think you can get away? Guess again--it will run you the **** down. On top of that, it can jump up to a meter in the air; or, high enough to kick a grown man right in the tits. The cassowary is an accomplished swimmer, excelling at both the breast and butterfly stroke. Once within range it will attempt to gore you with its hideous velociraptor talons, or touch you with its hilarious chin-balls. Biologists have failed to confront or acknowledge the cassowary's ability to transmogrify into the thing you fear most (which somehow looks exactly like a cassowary). Who are you going to believe, some ****ing scientist?

How You Can Kill It

So you've angered a cassowary:

1. Go closer.
2. Threaten the bird, either verbally or by making obscene gestures
3. Continue to approach
4. The bird runs at you suddenly. Let it.
5. The bird's claws inflict a horrible wound in your stomach
6. Die

Failing this, attempt to:

• Wave a stick at it
• Feed it a drama student, or small child
• Kick it in the penis
