We saw these ostrich sized birds in the wild in Australia a few years ago.
This one was at the Brownsville, Texas zoo.
They are capable of killing a person by kicking and using the middle toe to slice them open.
The bird is very territorial and they will actually stalk anything the see as a threat.
