Answer: Flightless bird
Notes: World Cassowary Day is observed on September 26 to highlight the bird's global importance. Cassowaries are large, flightless birds related to emus and are considered the most dangerous birds. Native to New Guinea and Australian rainforests, they are strong swimmers and quick on land. There are three species: the southern (largest), northern, and dwarf cassowaries. Cassowaries play a crucial role in seed dispersal, maintaining rainforest biodiversity. They hold cultural significance for Aboriginal groups, featuring in ceremonies and Dreamtime stories. Indigenous groups are now involved in cassowary conservation using traditional and modern methods.
