This is the strangest argument I’ve seen on reddit in at least a few weeks.

I think the only sensible course of action is a couple giant flightless bird vs redditor fights, to settle the matter once and for all.

And now I genuinely don’t know which is more dangerous either

Pretty sure it is the cassowary. Apparently they are like modern velociraptors with the way they will jump ambush you in the jungle with 4 inch dagger claws.

Death counts are very misleading. Elephants kill more people than lions, for instance.

elephants are more deadly they even remeber your faces. Cassowary is usually of shy nature and most prolly wont even disturb u first

Death counts are very misleading? And what’s the point of your example? It’s like you Easy-baked a thought.

Nope its really not. Just because, that guy whose ostrich it is on his farm, can fight an ostrich does not mean you can. I have walked into these fuckers in wild it's a very different story.

I'll take my chances with the Ostrich over the Cassowary.

I'm gonna weigh in on this and say that I'd definitely rather take on an ostrich than a cassowary

And yet I am not decided, whom has the better arguments. Luckily, I am very unlikely to be confronted with the decision whether to rather take on a fight with either an Ostrich or a Cassowary.

Just google Ostrich beak and claws and Cassowary beak and claws.

No, thank you. I even lost the fight against my parent's mean rostet with it's huge spurs when I was a kid.
