Cassowary :
It is classified as a ratite (flightless bird without a keel on its sternum bone)
Females are larger and more brightly coloured than the males.
Adult southern cassowaries are 1.5 to 1.8 m (5 to 6 ft) tall, although some females may reach 2 m (6.6 ft),[18] and weigh 58.5 kg (130 lb).
Cassowaries feed mainly on fruit, although all species are truly omnivorous and take a range of other plant foods, including shoots and grass seeds, in addition to fungi, invertebrates, and small vertebrates.
Cassowaries are very wary of humans, but if provoked, they are capable of inflicting serious, even fatal, injuries to both dogs and people.

I remember a few encounters over our many trips.. once we hiked around the shore from mission beach to the Tully river mouth.. sitting having lunch, felt someone watching me, turned to see a cassowary glaring at me through the bush... another time driving unsealed road to wallerman falls campground... suddenly the biggest one I've ever seen was plodding down the road like something out of Dr Zeus

[@DougieL]

They are remarkable creatures to see in the wild. We stumbled upon one on a quiet road, it came out of the bush, looked at us in our campervan, then continued over the road to the bush the other side. We were lucky. Also got a nice Barra up at Newell Beach - tasted marvellous on the bbq. Great country!!

[@bryanpena8057]

You could search about how brazilians throw the "hand nets", here we call ir "tarrafa", with the brazilian method you can open it all.

[@Maightybewsh]

So I replied to a comment a few vids back, a bloke from the US asking about crocs when Chris goes out and I said he's too far south and they don't hang around there. Well now he is close enough, way too close hahaha, what a lord!!

You forgot the shield in case a Cassowary attack. good journey

Amazing mate many memories in that bit of the world. Before my wife passed away we spent 3 months plus at Mission Beach. Beachcombing and markets paid for the stay. Good to see you come across some Cassowaries. Lovely video as always. Many thanks for the memories. Take it easy cobber.

An emu! Amazing. I went birding in Austrailia and did not see one. A dino bird.

[@crotalusatrox7931]

Worked at the Louisiana Purchase Gardens & Zoo in the 80's. We had 3 species of Ratite birds, Emu, Rhea & Cassowary. We were one of the first zoo's to successfully breed Cassowary in captivity. Shout out to Dr. Carl F. Watson who made the breeding program successful.

Jungle Perch are a tricky fish to catch mate, try use light braided line, light leader both under 10lb and long casts with surface lures. 👍

[@marlenevincent6019]

did you know that if you find a coconut that has sprouted some leaves, open it inside you will find an eatable a white polystyrene like ball it is delicious, I learnt from this from a Thai person.

[@tomlorenzen4062]

I swear that I saw a crocodile in this video. Keep hearing there are none. Yes I read comments that you are traveling, f that. Oh, great video! Dire Straights rock!

[@teeanahera8949]

Apart from the general awesomeness of this video I am gobsmacked at seeing a Cassowary actively hunting for prey in that creek! I didn’t know they were omnivorous. When I think back at my Cassowary sightings (only in the Daintree nat park) it was always them standing in a shallow creek, as you drive along I would stop at every bridge and look left and right up the creek bed to spot them. Now it makes sense, they weren’t just getting a drink, they were hunting. My fav episode of all I think. Surprised you didn’t hook a Jungle Perch. Those estuaries, apart from having crocs also have Saratoga and best caught at night with a surface popper reeled in slowly.

[@junglelifelurefishingadven8918]

No Saratoga south of Cooktown and this looks like the Daintree.

Another great glimpse of the land down under and its myriad different species. Some serious ankle turning trekking this trip, with some trick photography thrown in. Good luck with increasing subscribers. If you continue to build it, they will come. Best Chris.

[@Wulguru]

Well done, great to see one of Australia's iconic birds in the wild. Unfortunately, Cassowaries are listed as endangered and it is estimated there are only 4400 Southern Cassowaries left. You also filmed a Beach stone-curlew, also listed as vulnerable with approximately the same numbers left. Did you report your sightings, if you haven't, please do? There are many groups who would be extremely interested in this rare footage and what you saw. That is probably the only footage of a Cassowary actively feeding in water I have ever seen.

[@mooseknuckle8334]

This is absolutely amazing content, brother!!

[@chats5957]

You've got bigger balls than me snorkelling in that waterhole. I went swimming in a crystal clear waterhole many miles from the coast in the daintree. Thought it was safe......few weeks later a 3m salty was spotted in the same waterhole.
