ron, i know this man had a license to breed birds like this, but this bird killed him after what appearsntal fall. just how dangerous is the bird and how do they attack? >> well, they're very dangerous in the sense that they have incredible power, this animal attacks with its feet. maybe people look at a bird and think it's the beak, it's not the beak at all, the feet. they are flightless birds, similar to ostrich. this bird will attack by kicking and it has a four inch extended claw what it can use to cut and make severe injury. >> i understand the cassowary is rare, a native bird to australia and new guinea. are they dangerous to humans in their natural happen at that time. >> generally speaking, no, the cossowary will do anything it can to avoid a conflict with a human being, however, they will protect their chicks. they will go after dogs or anything that comes to threaten their chicks. somethi having said that over the last 50 years or so there has been 200 or so attacks but no deaths. >> how concerned are you that this man was breeding this bid at his home. >> i don't want this guy

the killer bird? ( laughter ) like, who's bidding on that? is there someone out there showing up like, "$200. i'll fight that bird!" ( laughter ) and people are like, this bird, i can't believe it. but let's be fair, people-- we murder birds every day, like hundreds of thousands of them. yeah. so life really is about perspective. we call this bird a murderer. but chickens locked up in farms everywhere, they're like, yo, that's our malcolm x.that's correct what that is. that's revenge." they're getting tattoos of that bird on themselves right now. and florida or not, it is shocking to hear that there's a bird that can kill people. it's like finding out there's a gerbil that commits arson. mr. snickers, no! all right, that's it for the headlines. let's move on to our main story, president trump. he's obviously a very busy man, but in between rounds of golf and shredding his tax returns, he still finds time for his true passion-- getting into beefs. and with trump, one beef is never enough. so let's catc

the first clues have come from lady birds.being here these lady birds have eaten the ape so the a feeds have eaten less plants and these changes in the plants have caused changes in the soil and that we have seen significant shifts in soils and. the lady birds above ground have changed the communities under it. the mixture of the excrement and dead insects can therefore be seen in the soil the more varied they are the more nutrients they leave. pollinators exploiters predators every insect has its function in our cycle of life . we don't even know about many of them yet. how can their services be replaced by human agency or by machines we can't stop insect mortality but will we even be able to keep our ecosystems alive without them. no way no way they are optimized in such a way by evolution that. it's very hard to replace them. and so it is very hard to imagine a future where the ecosystem service could be replaced by humans or robots or some other far scheme. i think if in fact mortality continues at the rate it is now in ti
