Johnny Cash was once nearly killed by an ostrich. Despite defending himself with a 6-foot long stick, Cash broke two ribs and was nearly disemboweled by the huge bird’s claw. Ostriches can reach 9 feet tall and weigh 320 pounds. They can be aggressive, and can easily kill a human (and have). The incident led to his addiction to painkillers and nearly ruined his life.

It ain't personal, nor about the UK, and you are being 'histrionic' by making it so.
The Mauritius agreement is not about to be renegotiated, and EVERY leader in Europe has been hit by the #IdiotInChief's rage-posting.

WILDLIFE VIDEO (5 min.)
"The ostrich is such a unique bird it can be hard to know where to start. Flightless and songless, they are the tallest, heaviest and fastest of any avian species on the planet."

Three mourning doves feeding from a tray bird-feeder full of peanuts, millets and other seeds. Two additional doves on the deck floor around the feeder.
An ostrich with its back towards the camera, on a grassy ground with large trees in the background. This photo was taken several years ago at the Asheboro zoo, NC, US.
Several White American Ibises in the shallow waters of a pond. A large body of water in the back and the pond are separated by some vegetation. This photo was taken near Wilmington in Dec 2024.
A great blue heron and two white swans in a lake. The swans are facing each other whereas the heron's back is towards the camera. This photo was taken in Charlotte NC US several years ago.
Per Rob ( @robcrank68.bsky.social ), today's #BirdOfTheDay theme: #LongLegsAndNeck. The Alternative theme: #BirdsOnFeeders.
I've gone with mourning doves, an ostrich, American White Ibises, and a great blue heron with two swans.

The hysteria. Weeping during prayers. Over 300 #ostriches that sadly had to be #culled. Issues prior to avian flu? Mismanagement? Less than stellar husbandry? WTAF was with US interference and interest? #KennedyJr Now -

We CAN'T get people to give a shit about children being annihilated in #Gaza.
We CAN'T get people to grasp the basic science behind #immunization.
We CAN'T get people to understand why we require #immigration.
Good news!
We CAN get people to hold vigils for dead #ostriches.

#Canada #Ostriches
Not only does #Canada cull #livestock ALL THE TIME due to disease, we also #cull WILD animals due to conflicts with livestock farmers, including #wolves, big cats and #equine.
If you're whining about culled #ostriches and still eat meat, then you're both a #hypocrite and a moron.
So wrong. The #ostriches weren’t sick and they should’ve been studied. Big pharma can’t make a profit off them. And no they weren’t meant for the food chain. They were pets. 🪶😡💔🇨🇦 #CFIAfailed www.cbc.ca/news/canada/...
“They held a natural cure for mankind but don’t worry CFIA took that also”
No they did not. Quite the opposite in fact.
The deed is finally done. Let's all move on.

…fighting to keep their jobs because of budget cuts and looked for any old excuse to cull these ostriches-
I won’t trust a fcking thing they say or do from now on.
I feel the same way about the Supreme Court of Canada.
#BC #Ostriches 💔
I saw the refusal to pick up the case by state supreme court.
And in the most cruel way even. #Canada #ostriches
Not happy about the cull of the #Edgewood #Ostriches today, but the reasons for it make sense, given how virulent the #H5N1 virus is. Plus it’s potential for jumping to humans.
#Ostriches It appears that they are now shooting the Ostriches on the farm in British Columbia. The shooters protected by RCMP. Even they are calling it “an execution”.🇨🇦
