Cassowary vs Man (Graphic)

Who makes these decisions??? I love cassowaries just as much as my fellow North Queenslanders. But are you seriously telling me that a cassowary is going walk up to this man-made bridge to just to cross the road? And, can anyone tell me what we're doing about protecting cassowaries from an even greater threat - wild pigs? 🐗 Further, while we spend $30m on this project - we've got parts of our national highway still looking like a goat track. 🧐 #KAP #BobKatter | Bob Katter

Seeing a cassowary in the wild is one of Tropical North Queensland’s rarest privileges 🐦 Cassowaries are ancient rainforest guardians, vital to the health of the Wet Tropics. They disperse seeds from hundreds of plant species and help shape the very ecosystem we walk through. Spotting one is never guaranteed… which makes it even more extraordinary when it happens!
