The crane ostrich is a large non-flying bird, mainly found in tropical rainforest areas, and it is extremely aggressive in its own right, so people need to be very careful when touching it.
In 2013, Guinness World Records conducted a selection of the crane ostrich, which resulted in the crane ostrich being named the "most dangerous" bird.
The Guinness Book of World Records' selection of the crane ostrich has made this inherently aggressive bird even more noticeable, so how dangerous is the crane ostrich?
Why is it so dangerous?
1. How strong is the attack power of the crane ostrich.
The crane ostrich is a large bird that cannot fly, and this bird should be relatively docile in people's impressions, but the crane ostrich is not docile, on the contrary, it has a very strong attack power.
The crane ostrich originated about 30 million years ago in the Cenozoic Paleocene, a large bird that appeared at that time, and its ancestors probably appeared in South America.
Cranes are flightless birds, and although they can't fly with wings, as a large bird, their legs are very strong, so they are very fast when they run.
Cranes can run at speeds of up to 50 kilometers per hour, which is faster than some humans.
Moreover, there are some very sharp things on the claws of the crane ostriche, which can easily pierce the skin of humans and even stab people's internal organs.
Moreover, the claws of the crane ostrich are still very sharp, which can easily cut through the body of the animal, and even kick through the steel plate.
The nails on the claws of the crane ostrich are 10 cm long, and these nails are still very sharp, so the claws of the crane ostrich are very sharp and can cut through everything.
Moreover, there are some scales on the claws of the crane ostrich, which can protect the claws of the crane ostrich and will not let the claws of the crane ostrich be harmed, so the claws of the crane ostrich are also very strong and powerful.
The legs of the crane ostrich can provide it with a certain reaction speed, because the claws of the crane ostrich are very sharp, so the claws of the crane ostrich can easily cut through the body of the animal, and then attack the animal, but the claws of the crane ostrich are not used to prey.
Cranes feed mainly on plants, although they also eat small insects, which pose little threat to them, so their claws are not used to hunt.
But the claws of the crane ostrich are still very useful for them, they will use their claws to dig holes, and they will also use their claws to protect themselves, so although the claws of the crane ostrich are very sharp, they are not used to attack people.
2. The attack of the crane ostrich.
Although the claws of cranes and ostriches are not used to attack people, there have been some incidents of cranes attacking people in history.
Most of the cases of cranes attacking people are due to human reasons, humans believe that cranes are docile birds, so they often come into contact with them, and some people will use some food to lure cranes, but cranes and ostriches will still attack people.
Since the crane ostrich has attacked people, it means that the crane ostrich still does not like to come into contact with humans, so human beings should respect the choice of the crane ostrich and not contact the crane ostrich excessively.
However, cranes are regarded as a kind of "pet" by people, and some people will even keep cranes as pets, but cranes and ostriches are not able to be raised by people.
Cranes are a wild animal, their habits are different from human habits, if you keep them at home, then they will feel uncomfortable, and then they will become more ferocious.
Therefore, there will be some incidents of cranes attacking people, and there was an incident of cranes attacking people, this incident was because a family raised a crane ostrich and locked it in the house, but the crane ostrich became very irritable after being locked in the house, and finally kicked a woman in the family to death.
Although this incident has a certain relationship with the crane ostrich, but in the end, it is because of human reasons, human beings keep the crane ostrich at home, and the crane ostrich feels that it can't adapt, and some bad things will eventually happen.
Cranes are a very common bird in South America, and people know more about them, so it is common for cranes to attack people in South America, and some of them can lead to death.
Because the claws of the crane ostrich are very sharp, people who are kicked by the crane ostrich will have some wounds that are very similar to the claws.
On one occasion, a man was kicked in the leg by a crane ostrich in South America, and the man died of blood loss due to the severity of the leg injury.
Such incidents often occur in South America, so people in South America are still very afraid of cranes.
And in South America the number of cranes and ostriches is also very large, so there are often incidents of cranes attacking people in South America, these events are very dangerous, so the crane ostrich is also named the "most dangerous" bird by the Guinness Book of World Records.
3. The survival of cranes and ostriches.
The number of cranes is decreasing, so they are now listed as endangered.
The main reason why the crane ostrich is listed as an endangered species is due to human beings, who are constantly occupying the habitat of the crane ostrich and cutting down the trees where the crane ostrich live, so the number of the crane ostrich is constantly decreasing.
Cranes live in tropical rainforests, which play a very important role in tropical rainforest ecosystems.
The trees in the tropical rainforest are very dense, and the cranes will use their own feet to smooth some of the paths, and the destruction of the cranes and ostriches will cut off the path of these trees, which will lead to changes in the ecosystem of the tropical rainforest.
Cranes also play a very important role in the rainforest, as they are flightless birds, so their survival in the rainforest is much simpler.
Cranes and ostriches use their feet to make some paths, which are very important in the rainforest, because the trees in the rainforest are very lush, and without these roads, it is very difficult for humans to walk in the rainforest.
There are also some animals that use the path of the crane ostrich to walk, so the crane ostrich has a very important role in the tropical rainforest.
At the same time, the crane ostrich will also use its feet to hit some trees, and these trees will have some insects, these insects are the food of the crane ostriche, so the crane ostrich also has a very important role in the tropical rainforest.
Cranes are flightless birds, but they can run very fast, so they are also very advantageous as a predator.
Cranes and ostriches also play a very important role in tropical rainforests, so humans should protect them and not excessively damage their living environment.
Fourth, the significance of the crane ostrich to science.
As a flightless bird, the crane ostrich is still very special among birds, so the crane ostrich is also a very special bird in the eyes of scientists, which can provide some important clues for scientists.
Scientists believe that the crane ostrich is the descendant of the dinosaur, because the crane ostrich and the dinosaur have a very large similarity, so the crane ostrich is likely to evolve from the dinosaur.
Dinosaurs have been extinct in the Cenozoic era, but the crane ostrich can still survive, so the crane ostrich is still very special in the eyes of scientists, the crane ostrich may have lived with the dinosaurs in the Cenozoic period, so the crane ostrich is likely to be the descendants of the dinosaurs.
Moreover, the crane ostrich is the largest bird in the world today, so it is of great significance for the study of paleontology and biological evolution.
In addition, cranes are also flightless birds, so they are also very fast when running, which is also an important discovery for scientists.
It was thought that cranes would become smaller and smaller as they evolved, because large cranes would need to use more energy to run, so they would be phased out.
But cranes did not follow this rule, and even large cranes were able to survive, which was also an important discovery for scientists.
The crane ostrich is also of great significance to scientific research, so human beings should also be very careful when touching the crane ostrich, and do not over-contact the crane ostrich, which is also a kind of protection for the crane ostrich itself.
epilogue
Cranes are named the "most dangerous" bird by the Guinness Book of World Records, but much of their aggressiveness comes from human misunderstanding and overexposure.
Cranes are also very important to scientists, they may be the descendants of dinosaurs, so people should still protect this bird, give them more living space, and not let this bird go extinct because of human reasons.
The coexistence of humans and wild animals is very important, and for some wild animals, they also have a certain role in the living environment of human beings, so human beings should still respect the laws of nature and not excessively destroy the balance of nature.
