I find the size of that bird simultaneously impressive and terrifying.

The eggs must be the size of dogs. So must be the droppings.

Semi serious question, could one fly that?

[–] HottieAutie@lemmy.dbzer0.com 1 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

yep!

edit: oops, misunderstood the question. it can fly, but no idea if it could cary the weight of a person.
