00:00Birds are often seen as cute and harmless creatures but did you know that some are dangerous?
00:15From talons that can slice through flesh to powerful beaks that can break bones, there's
00:20a whole world of birds out there that you don't want to mess with.
00:23In this video we'll take a closer look at some of the most dangerous birds on the planet
00:28and find out why they're so dangerous.
00:311.
00:33The African Ostrich When most people think of ostriches, they
00:37picture a flightless bird known for its long legs and silky appearance.
00:42But don't let their appearance fool you.
00:44The African Ostrich is a dangerous bird that can be incredibly dangerous if provoked.
00:50Despite its lack of flight, this enormous bird can achieve speeds of up to 45 miles
00:54per hour or 72 kilometers per hour, making it one of the quickest two-legged creatures.
01:01Their powerful kicks can kill predators and even humans in one swift blow.
01:06But it's not just their legs that make them dangerous.
01:10Ostriches have a sharp, powerful beak that they use for foraging and self-defense and
01:14may quickly impale an opponent with a single strike if threatened.
01:18Just as if that is not enough, the African Ostrich, with its razor-sharp claws, can be
01:24a terrible foe.
01:25So while they may appear huge and silly, keeping your guard around African Ostriches is crucial.
01:31They are, without a doubt, one of the most hazardous birds on the planet.
01:362.
01:37The Red-Tailed Hawk With its distinctive red tail and piercing
01:41gaze, the Red-Tailed Hawk is a common sight in the skies.
01:45But do you know there's much more to this bird than meets the eye?
01:48First, its physical appearance.
01:50The Red-Tailed Hawk is a medium-sized bird of prey with a wingspan of up to four feet.
01:56As the name suggests, the most striking feature of this bird is its rusty red tail, which
02:01is visible in flight and sets it apart from other birds of prey.
02:05The Red-Tailed Hawk can be found in many environments, from deserts and grasslands to forests and
02:11urban areas.
02:13One of the most interesting things about the Red-Tailed Hawk is its vocalization.
02:18They have a loud, piercing call that can be heard for miles.
02:21This call is often used to communicate with other Red-Tailed Hawks and to establish their
02:26territory.
02:27Now, let's talk about what makes this bird a skilled hunter.
02:30The Red-Tailed Hawk has exceptional eyesight and can spot its prey from great distances.
02:35It uses its powerful talons to grip its prey and its sharp beak to kill it.
02:40They are opportunistic feeders and will eat a variety of small mammals, reptiles, birds,
02:46and carrion.
02:47While in the grand scheme of things, hawks are generally not known to attack or hunt
02:51humans, there have been a few documented instances of this.
02:55In 2001, a Red-Tailed Hawk in New York City attacked several people, including a baby
03:01in a stroller.
03:02While the Red Hawk may be beautiful, remember to keep your distance because you don't want
03:06it attacking you.
03:083.
03:10The African Oxpecker You might have seen this bird sitting on the
03:14backs of large mammals such as buffaloes, zebras, and giraffes, pecking away at ticks
03:19and other parasites.
03:21But did you know that the African Oxpecker is a dangerous bird in disguise?
03:25Yes, that's right.
03:28These small birds are notorious for aggressive behavior towards other animals and humans.
03:33They are known to attack the eyes and ears of large mammals, causing injury and bleeding.
03:39You may think they are just helping the animal by removing parasites, but they often cause
03:43more harm than good.
03:45The pecking can become so intense that it causes open wounds, which can become infected.
03:50In severe cases, this can lead to the death of the animal.
03:54The African Oxpecker is also a danger to humans.
03:57They have been known to attack people, especially when they feel threatened.
04:02These birds can cause serious injury with their sharp beaks and claws, making them a
04:06force to be reckoned with.
04:08Therefore, remember that an African Oxpecker is more than just a lovely little bird perched
04:13on an animal's back the next time you see one.
04:17It is a dangerous predator that has the potential to do great harm.
04:214.
04:22The Marabou Stork Up next is a bird that many of us might have
04:26seen but need to learn more about, the Marabou Stork.
04:30These large birds are found in Africa and are known for their distinct appearance, their
04:35bald heads, long legs, and massive wingspans.
04:39However, Marabou Stork is not only a fascinating bird, but also a dangerous one.
04:45Yes, that's right.
04:47Despite their harmless appearance, Marabou Storks are well known for their aggressive
04:51behavior, especially towards other animals.
04:55They are known to attack smaller birds and even steal their prey, making them a formidable
05:00predator.
05:01Scavenging is another habit of these birds.
05:03They feed on dead animals and carcasses and are called the Undertakers of the Skies.
05:09But that's not all, Marabou Storks are also dangerous to humans.
05:13They have been known to attack people who venture too close to their nests, causing
05:17serious injury with their sharp beaks and claws.
05:21In some cases, they have even been known to steal food from people, making them a nuisance
05:26and a danger.
05:27So the next time you see a Marabou Stork, remember that it's not just a harmless big
05:32bird.
05:33It's a dangerous predator that should be respected and kept at a safe distance.
05:385.
05:39The Bearded Vulture
05:41The Bearded Vulture, also known as the Lamergaea, is a large bird of prey found in the mountains
05:47of Europe, Africa, and Asia.
05:50With its distinctive black beard-like feathers, it's hard to miss.
05:54But did you know behind this majestic and weird look is a very vicious bird?
05:58Yes, that's right.
06:00Despite their gentle appearance, Bearded Vultures are known for their aggressive behavior.
06:05They have been known to attack animals such as lambs and goats, causing serious injury
06:10and even death.
06:11But that's not all, Bearded Vultures are also known for their scavenging habits.
06:16They feed on dead animals, and their powerful beaks and sharp claws make them capable of
06:21breaking open bones, which constitute about 70% of their meals, to get to the marrow inside.
06:28This makes them a danger to livestock and other animals that are not strong enough to
06:32defend themselves.
06:33And if that's not enough, Bearded Vultures are also dangerous to humans.
06:37In fact, historically, the Bearded Vulture was considered a dangerous threat.
06:42People believed they caught and killed babies and livestock.
06:46As a result, they were hunted and eradicated in the Alps, where they have recently been
06:50reintroduced.
06:51Their sharp talons and beaks can cause serious injury, so you don't want to be on their bad
06:56side.
06:576.
06:58The Harpy Eagle
07:00The Harpy Eagle is America's largest and most powerful raptor, even larger than the Golden
07:05Eagle.
07:06Its name alludes to Greek mythology's harpies, monsters in the shape of a bird with a human
07:11face.
07:12This magnificent bird of prey is famed for its formidable talons, which can easily shatter
07:17bones.
07:18The Harpy Eagle, which lives in the rainforests of Central and South America, is not known
07:23to attack humans, but its size and strength make it deadly.
07:28The Harpy Eagle is considered a dangerous bird because of its formidable size and hunting
07:32capabilities.
07:34With a wingspan of up to six feet, a strong and powerful beak, and razor-sharp talons,
07:39the Harpy Eagle can easily take down large prey, such as monkeys and sloths.
07:44Its hunting prowess and size and strength make the Harpy Eagle a formidable predator
07:49in its jungle habitat.
07:51Additionally, the bird is not shy, and has been known to attack humans if it feels threatened,
07:56which further contributes to its reputation as a dangerous bird.
08:00However, it is important to note that Harpy Eagles are not naturally aggressive, and will
08:06only attack if they feel their nest or young are in danger.
08:107.
08:11Cassowary
08:14With its striking black plumage and lethal claws, the Cassowary reigns supreme as one
08:19of the world's most dangerous birds.
08:21This formidable creature, native to the dense tropical forests of Australia and New Guinea,
08:27commands respect and fear with its intimidating presence and unpredictable behavior.
08:32The Cassowary boasts a powerful physique, standing over five feet tall and weighing
08:37up to 140 pounds.
08:39Its massive legs are equipped with three razor-sharp claws, the longest of which can reach up to
08:44four inches in length.
08:46This deadly arsenal, combined with the bird's agility and lightning-fast movements, make
08:52it a formidable force to be reckoned with.
08:55But it's not just its physical attributes that make the Cassowary such a dangerous bird.
09:00Its unpredictable behavior adds an extra layer of danger for those who dare to cross its
09:04path.
09:06Cassowaries are known to be solitary creatures, fiercely protective of their territory and
09:10their young.
09:12When threatened, they are known to attack with deadly precision, using their powerful
09:16legs and claws to strike fear into the hearts of their attackers.
09:20Despite its fearsome reputation, the Cassowary remains an important and magnificent part
09:25of the world's ecosystem.
09:27It plays a crucial role in dispersing seeds and maintaining healthy forest ecosystems,
09:33acting as a gardener of the forest.
09:35However, when next time you find yourself in the lush tropical forests of Australia
09:40or New Guinea, be sure to give the Cassowary a wide berth and respect its place as one
09:45of the world's most dangerous birds.
09:478.
09:49The Peregrine Falcon
09:51This sleek, powerful bird is a master of the skies, known for its incredible speed, agility,
09:57and hunting prowess.
09:59With wings that stretch over two feet in length, the Peregrine Falcon is a formidable force
10:04in the air.
10:05When hunting, this bird can reach over 200 miles per hour, making it one of the fastest
10:10creatures on Earth.
10:12Its keen eyesight and razor-sharp talons make it a deadly predator capable of easily
10:17taking down prey much larger than itself.
10:20But it's not just the Peregrine Falcon's physical abilities that make it dangerous.
10:25It's also its cunning intellect and unwavering determination.
10:29This bird is a master of the hunt, using its speed and agility to outwit its prey.
10:34It will often fly high in the sky, scanning the landscape below for its next meal.
10:40When it spots its target, it will dive at incredible speed, using its talons to snatch
10:44its prey mid-air.
10:46The Peregrine Falcon is also a fierce defender of its territory.
10:50It will attack anything that threatens its nest, whether it's a rival bird or a human
10:54ventures too close.
10:56This bird will stop at nothing to protect its young, making it extremely dangerous.
11:01In short, the Peregrine Falcon is a fearsome predator that embodies the essence of danger
11:06and power.
11:07And if you ever encounter a Peregrine Falcon in the wild, you'll be faced with a true force
11:12of nature.
11:139.
11:15The Osprey
11:16Osprey, also known as Seahawks, are magnificent birds of prey native to many parts of the
11:21world, including North America, Europe, and Australia.
11:26While they are often revered for their beauty and hunting skills, they can also be quite
11:30dangerous to humans.
11:32One of the main reasons that ospreys can be dangerous is their sharp talons and beaks.
11:37These birds use their talons to grasp and hold onto their prey and their beaks to tear
11:41apart their food.
11:43When ospreys feel threatened, they may use their talons and beaks to defend themselves,
11:48which can result in serious injuries to humans.
11:51Another reason that ospreys can be dangerous is their tendency to dive-bomb when they feel
11:56their nests or young are threatened.
11:59Ospreys are very protective of their nests and will defend them fiercely against any
12:04perceived threats.
12:05This can result in the birds swooping down and attacking humans or other animals that
12:10come too close to their nests.
12:12In addition to their physical abilities, ospreys can also spread diseases to humans.
12:18Ospreys feed on fish and often feed on dead or diseased fish contaminated with harmful
12:23bacteria and viruses.
12:25If a human comes into contact with an osprey fed on contaminated fish, they may be at risk
12:30of contracting a disease.
12:32Overall, while ospreys are fascinating and beautiful birds, they can also be dangerous
12:37to humans.
12:38Therefore, it is important to respect their space and avoid disturbing their nests and
12:43young.
12:44And if you do encounter an osprey, it is best to keep a safe distance and to avoid approaching
12:49them.
12:5010.
12:51The Northern Crested Penguin
12:53While these flightless birds may seem cute and cuddly with their black and white feathers
12:57and charming crest, don't be fooled.
13:00This feathered menace is not as homely as they seem, possessing a dangerous combination
13:05of sharp beaks, disease-ridden bodies, and clumsiness that can turn any encounter into
13:10a potential disaster.
13:12Its beak, designed to pluck fish from the icy waters, can deliver a painful bite that
13:17can leave a lasting impression.
13:19And if that wasn't enough, these birds also carry avian influenza, lice, and mites, which
13:24can easily be transmitted to humans and cause serious health issues.
13:28But the dangers of the Northern Crested Penguin don't stop there.
13:32Waddling around on land, these birds are known to cause falls and tripping hazards, making
13:38even a leisurely walk treacherous.
13:40Their uncoordinated movements and lack of grace have led to numerous accidents, leaving
13:45people stumbling and falling in their path.
13:48We advise you to treat these birds with the respect they deserve and keep a safe distance.
13:53After all, it's always better to be safe than sorry.
13:5611.
13:57The Snowy Owl While these birds, with their pristine white
14:01feathers and piercing yellow gaze, may seem like peaceful sentinels of the tundra, they
14:07are actually formidable hunters, armed with razor-sharp talons and a powerful beak, making
14:12them one of the most dangerous birds in the Arctic tundra.
14:16Their talons, designed to grasp and hold on to the prey, can deliver a crushing blow
14:21that can easily penetrate the skin.
14:23And the beak, used to tear apart its food, can cause serious injury with a single bite.
14:29If a snowy owl feels threatened, it won't hesitate to defend itself, leaving those who
14:33approach too closely at risk.
14:3612.
14:37The Northern Garnet The Northern Garnet is a bird of peril, a
14:42harbinger of havoc, and a master of mischief.
14:45With its piercing red eyes, sharp beak, and strong talons, this bird is not to be trifled
14:51with.
14:52Its feathers, the color of garnet stones, shimmer with a dangerous gleam in the sunlight
14:57as it fearlessly soars through the sky, swooping down to snatch its prey with lightning-fast
15:02precision.
15:04The Northern Garnet is extremely dangerous, albeit not just because of its appearance.
15:08No, this bird is a master strategist, using its keen intelligence to outwit even the most
15:14seasoned hunters.
15:16It has a cunning mind, always one step ahead of its opponents, and it never hesitates to
15:21use its sharp talons and beak as weapons.
15:24Therefore, take caution because the Northern Garnet is not a bird to be taken lightly,
15:30because those who cross its path will undoubtedly regret it.
15:3313.
15:35The Winged Goose Have you ever been chased by a chicken?
15:39Well, that chase is nothing compared to that of a winged goose.
15:43The winged goose, also known as the Anceriformes, is a waterfowl species often overlooked for
15:48its seemingly harmless appearance.
15:51However, the winged goose is a highly dangerous bird that should not be underestimated.
15:56One of the key reasons the winged goose is considered dangerous is its powerful wingspan,
16:01which can reach up to six feet in length.
16:04With these large wings, the winged goose is capable of flying at high speeds and can cause
16:09significant damage to any human or animal that gets in its way.
16:14Additionally, the tips of the winged goose's wings are sharp and can be used as weapons
16:19to defend itself and its offspring from predators.
16:22Furthermore, during the breeding season, the winged goose can become territorial and fiercely
16:28defend its nest and offspring from any perceived threats.
16:32The bird has been known to attack humans and other animals, including dogs and other waterfowl,
16:37to protect its young.
16:3914.
16:40The Pelican
16:42With its distinctive large bill and pouch, the pelican is often considered a gentle and
16:46comical bird, but, as you're about to find out, there's more to this water bird than
16:51meets the eye.
16:52The pelican is known for its ability to catch its prey using its large bill, which can measure
16:57up to eighteen inches in length, and is equipped with a sharp hooked tip.
17:02But this bill is not just used for fishing.
17:05It can also be used as a weapon to defend itself from potential predators and anyone
17:09that has the gut to disturb her during its breeding season.
17:13In fact, eyewitnesses have reported the pelican delivering painful strikes with its bill,
17:18causing injury to animals and even humans, so don't be fooled by its seemingly gentle
17:24appearance.
17:25The pelican is a dangerous bird.
17:2715.
17:28The Hooded Pitohui
17:31While it may look like a harmless bird with striking colors, the hooded pitohui is one
17:35of the world's most dangerous birds.
17:38The feathers of the hooded pitohui contain a highly toxic substance called homobotracotoxin.
17:44This substance is so toxic that it can cause paralysis and even death in small animals
17:49and birds that come into contact with it.
17:52And if that doesn't scare you, the hooded pitohui has razor-sharp talons that can cause
17:57serious injury and a beak that is powerful enough to crack open hard nuts and fruits.
18:03The hooded pitohui is a stunning yet dangerous bird that should be admired from a safe distance.
18:09Remember, its toxic oil can cause serious health problems and even death, so it's best
18:14to leave this bird alone and let it roam free in its natural habitat.
18:1916.
18:20The Australian Magpie
18:23The Australian magpie uses sharp beaks and talons to defend its territory and young.
18:28During the breeding season, which typically runs from August to October, the birds can
18:32become extremely territorial and aggressive toward anyone who comes too close to their nests.
18:38This aggression can manifest as swooping when the bird dives at people or animals who venture
18:43too close to its territory.
18:45These attacks can be painful and dangerous, especially for young children and cyclists.
18:51In fact, there have been reports of people being knocked off their bikes or suffering
18:54serious injuries due to magpie attacks.
18:58So how can you avoid being attacked by a magpie?
19:01Park rangers recommend wearing a hat or carrying an umbrella to protect yourself when walking
19:05or cycling near magpie nesting sites.
19:08You can also stay away from areas with high populations of magpies during the breeding
19:12season.
19:1417.
19:15The Mute Swan
19:17With their long necks, pristine white feathers, and elegant posture, mute swans are a true
19:23joy to behold.
19:25But despite their seemingly peaceful appearance, these birds can be dangerous, especially when
19:30they feel threatened.
19:33Mute swans are fiercely protective of their territory and will defend it with everything
19:37they have.
19:39They have been known to attack humans, pets, and even boats that venture too close to their
19:44nests with their large and powerful beaks.
19:47These attacks can be painful and, in some cases, even dangerous.
19:5218.
19:53The Bald Eagle
19:55If you've ever held a dollar bill or seen one, you've probably seen a bald eagle.
19:59But asides been on the seal of the United States, with their striking white heads, powerful
20:04wingspan, and fierce hunting skills, bald eagles are truly a sight to behold.
20:10But despite their majestic appearance, these birds can also be extremely dangerous.
20:15Bald eagles use strong, sharp talons to catch fish and other prey.
20:21Bald eagles are fiercely protective of their territory and will defend it with everything
20:25they have.
20:26They have been known to attack humans, pets, and even drones that venture too close to
20:31their nests.
20:33These attacks can be painful and, in some cases, even dangerous.
20:37It's best to stay away and enjoy their beauty from a safe distance.
20:4119.
20:43The American Herring Gull
20:46You might think of seagulls as cute and harmless birds that follow fishing boats for a free
20:50meal.
20:51But the American herring gull is a whole different story.
20:54These birds can grow up to 22 inches in length and weigh up to 2.5 pounds, making them one
20:59of the largest gull species in the world.
21:02And with that size comes some serious power.
21:06American herring gulls are known for their aggressive and territorial behavior.
21:10They will defend their nests and feeding areas from perceived threats and will not
21:14hesitate to attack humans or other animals that come too close.
21:18These attacks can result in serious injury, and it's not uncommon for the gulls to use
21:23their strong beaks and sharp talons to attack their victims' eyes, face, and head.
21:29But that's not all.
21:31American herring gulls are also notorious for their ability to steal food.
21:36They have been known to swoop down and snatch food right out of people's hands, and they've
21:40been known to take food from other birds as well.
21:43They've even been known to steal food from picnic tables and trash cans, and they're
21:48not afraid to use their strength and size to their advantage.
21:51If you're in an area where gulls are known to be a problem, be mindful of your surroundings
21:56and keep your food covered.
21:58And if a gull does attack, try to cover your head and face and back away slowly, as sudden
22:03movements can trigger their instincts to attack.
22:0620.
22:07The Emu In case you aren't familiar, emus are large,
22:11flightless birds just like the ostrich, and they might seem cute and harmless at first
22:16glance.
22:17However, looks can be deceiving, and emus can be incredibly dangerous when they feel
22:22threatened.
22:23Emus are known for their incredible speed.
22:25They can run up to 50 miles per hour, and with their long legs and powerful feet, they
22:30can deliver some serious kicks.
22:33In fact, their kicks are so strong that they've been known to break bones, and they can cause
22:37serious injury to humans and other animals.
22:40They're also highly aggressive and territorial, attacking anyone or animal that comes too
22:45close for their comfort.
22:47They'll use their strong beaks and sharp talons to defend themselves, and their attacks can
22:52be sudden and unexpected.
22:55That concludes today's list of the 20 dangerous birds you should run away from.
23:00But what are your thoughts on these stunning yet dangerous birds?
