    A Murderous Bird Is On The Loose In The English Countryside!

    The Mail would have us believe that there's a vicious killer Rhea terrorising Hertfordshire, but is the humble ratite a danger to the nation, or the latest victim of the press?

    Ok, people of Hertfordshire... The Daily Mail doesn't want to worry you but there's a GIANT KILLER BIRD ON THE LOOSE!

    Is it something like this?

    A Rhea looks like this...

    No wait, like this...

    No. Look at these guys!

    So why are we scared again?

    Or The Mail's got the peaceable Rhea mixed up with the altogether nastier Cassowary

    No wonder members of the Ratite family don't like journalists...

    The Rhea is about as much of a 'killer bird' as this guy...
