Big and vicious, but I don't know about beautiful?
This creature from down under is called the behemoth of the bird world, and is nearly as big as the ostrich. It has a face that will scare a grown man, and the handle of vicious should give you a clue.
The cassowary is considered the most dangerous bird in the world - each 3-toed foot has a dagger like a claw on the inner toe that is up to 10cm long. It can slice open any predator with a single swift kick. It can jump nearly 2m straight up in the air, and is a strong swimmer. It can gallop at a speed of over 30mph!
