Top 10 Deadliest Birds in the World



The Top 10 Deadliest Birds in the World Number 10: Martial Eagle With a wingspan of almost 3 meters, the martial eagle is Africa’s largest eagle. It is an aggressive predator and can kill adult baboons, sheep, and has even attacked farmers that attempt to keep them away from their sheep. Number 9: Swan The #9 spot might comes as a surprise but it is true, the swan is one of the deadliest birds in the world. Swans are beautiful, majestic creatures, however, they are also born to be extremely aggressive. In 2012, a man in Illinois was killed when a swan pushed him out of his canoe and pecked him, keeping him underwater, until he drowned. Number 8: Harpy Eagle The harpy eagle can break a man’s arm with its 6 inch long talons. It is strong and also very agile. It has a shorter wingspan that allows it to maneuver and chase its prey thru dense woodlands. Number 7: African Crowned Eagle The weapons of choice for the African crowned eagle are its massive talons. The bird is so strong that it crushes the skulls of monkeys and other primates with its talons. It has also been known to attack and kill children. Number 6: Red-Tailed Hawk The 5 ft wingspan and extra long talons place the red-tailed hawk in the #6 position. They are territorial and very aggressive. Any sense of perceived danger and they will unleash an unrelenting attack. Number 5: Australian Magpie The Australian magpie is a very aggressive and territorial bird, especially during its 6-9 week nesting season. If their territory is encroached upon they will immediately swoop down and attack. Eye injuries, severe head lacerations, and fatalities have resulted from these terrifying incidences. Number 4: Pitohui Brightly colored and native to New Guinea, the pitohui have flesh and feathers coated in a neurotoxin. The amount of neurotoxin in one pitohui bird would be enough to kill 1,000 mice. Number 3: Little Shrikethrush Flying into the #3 position is the little shrikethrush. A small bird with a very dangerous secret. It harbors a toxin in its flesh and feathers. One of the most potent toxins in nature, the same poison found on the deadly golden poison arrow frogs. Number 2: Ostrich The ostrich is the largest and heaviest living bird on the planet. An adult can weigh over 300 lbs and grow up to 10 ft tall. They are extremely powerful birds and can kill a human with a single kick or head butt. Ostriches can run over 40 mph and become very aggressive if they perceive a threat in nearby. Number 1: The World’s Deadliest Bird is the cassowary. Native to Australia and New Guinea, this bird can grow to almost 7 ft tall and weighs 100-130 lbs. It has razor sharp claws and can run up to 30 mph. Cassowary attacks have occurred when humans have intruded into the cassowary’s territory. The cassowary can disembowel and kill with one single swipe of its razor sharp claws. Time for the question of the day: Did you enjoy this Top 10 Deadliest Birds in the World?
