Do you fancy a new hobby? One for the brave

The large, flightless bird that attacked and killed its 75-year-old owner in Florida earlier this month can now be yours—for the right price.

The killer cassowary, along with dozens of other dangerous and endangered animals owned by Marvin Hajos before his death, is up for auction this Saturday by Gulf Coast Livestock in Madison, Florida.

The animals are being sold in accordance with the last wishes of Hajos, whose cassowary attacked him after he took a spill on his farm in Alachua County, authorities said.

“My understanding is that the gentleman was in the vicinity of the bird and at some point fell. When he fell, he was attacked,” Deputy Chief Jeff Taylor told The Gainesville Sun at the time of the incident.

The sale’s auctioneer, Scotty Wilson, says they expect about 100 people from across the country to attend Saturday. The media, however, are not welcome.

“Anyone seen video taping in any capacity will be deemed trespassing and will be escorted out by security,” a post advertising the sale warned. “Your video equipment may or may not be confiscated until all video recordings are distroyed (sic). Please do not comprise (sic) our position.”
