Had a guy killed near Gainesville two years back on his farm.
Like raising gators, you better know what your doing, and never turn your back. https://www.jacksonville.com/news/20190415/florida-man-killed-on-his-farm-by-cassowary-he-owned

Is that the one that it killed him through the fence?

A guy up the coast went into sepsis after his Reeve’s Pheasant spurred him good and hard in the thigh. About 4 pounds of very mean rooster. They never really tame down. I’ve known ordinary roosters to be incredibly hostile. One guy used to put a bucket over his jungle fowl rooster every time he went into the coop.
