The Rules

Posts must be:

  1. Links to news stories from...
  2. ...credible sources, with...
  3. ...their original headlines, that...
  4. ...would make people who see the headline think, “That has got to be a story from The Onion, America’s Finest News Source.”

Please also avoid duplicates.

Comments and post content must abide by the server rules for Lemmy.world and generally abstain from trollish, bigoted, or otherwise disruptive behavior that makes this community less fun for everyone.

I don't think NZ has crocs, best you could do is probably a sheep.

I'm sure you could find a Cassowary around to get some equivalent amount of chaos to a croc.

I don't want to meet anyone that can successfully carry and then throw a cassowary. I'm 192 cm, and 61 kg, and I am certain that I couldn't manage to restrain a cassowary to carry the thing, much less throw one. The weight isn't the difficulty factor here, it's the damn deinonychus looking feet, and beak that I'm worried about.
