Adult individuals of the helmeted cassowary reach meters in height (some individuals can reach two meters) and weigh about 60 kilograms. Therefore, cassowaries are the largest birds in Australia and the second largest birds in the world (after the ostrich). All three species have an outgrowth on the head, which is called a “helmet“. It consists of a horny substance around a hard material that has a spongy texture. There are several versions about the functions of this helmet. Perhaps it is a secondary sexual characteristic. According to another version, cassowaries use a helmet to make their way through the undergrowth while running. It is also possible that cassowaries use it as a weapon in dominance fights or as a means of raking up fallen leaves while foraging. The last three versions are disputed by biologist Andrew Mack based on his own observations. However, earlier papers by Crome and Moore noted that birds bow their heads while running. Mack and Jones suggest that helmets play a role in beep communication. This assumption is based on the fact that at least the muruk and helmeted cassowary emit low-frequency sounds, which can be a means of communication in dense rainforests. The head, and in two species of cassowaries also the neck, is unfeathered. These two species also have hanging catkins. By the number of catkins, it is easy to determine the type of cassowary: they are absent in the muruk, one in the orange-necked cassowary, and two in the helmeted cassowary. The plumage is black, has some features. Like emus (the closest relatives of cassowaries), cassowary feathers are devoid of hooks that give elasticity to the feather. As a result of this, cassowary feathers are softer and more flexible than those of most other birds. In addition, additional feathers are increased in size (in most birds they are small or hidden) and, together with the main feather, come out of the same feather. Both feathers, which give the plumage of cassowaries and emus their uniqueness, are replaced simultaneously during the annual molt. The wings of cassowaries are rudimentary, with flight feathers reduced to 5-6 needle-like trunks (from 6 to 20 cm long in adult birds). The natives of New Guinea like to use these feathers most of all as ornaments for the nose and ceremonial clothes. On the main finger of the wing there is a claw - a primitive heritage of reptiles. Cassowaries do not have tail feathers. Source Wikipedia. ➤➤➤➤➤➤ 💛Did you like animals?
