Found in the tropical rainforests of north east Queensland the Cassowary is a giant bird with a colourful head that kind of looks like a dinosaur from the past.
They have a striking appearance.
Did you know that they can't fly?! Instead they run super fast and are really good swimmers. They can cross rivers if they need to.
They have a hard bump on their heads called a casque, which helps them push through bushes in the rainforest.
They eat a lot of fruits and help the forest by spreading seeds when they walk around.
We loved drawing this Cassowary for you.
Made into beautiful earrings using Recycled Plastics right here in sunny Brisbane.
All of our Earrings use high quality Hypoallergenic Surgical Steel
