Solution:
The southern cassowary (Casuarius casuarius johnsonii) is Australia's most commanding birds. It is a large, colourful, and flightless bird. It is found only in the compact tropical rainforests of north-east Queensland, Papua New Guinea and some surrounding islands.
Cassowaries live in tropical rainforests, mangrove forests woodlands, melaleuca (paperbark) swamps, and can even be found foraging beside beaches. They need this diverse range of habitats to secure availability of fleshy fruits year-round.
