Hi all

Here's one for the tropical birders!  I've heard some tales from Mission Beach 
way of hungry cassowaries refusing to eat ripe native figs (species 
undetermined).

Fact or fiction?  Is there something in the ripe figs of some Ficus species 
that cassowaries don't like?

Any takers?

Regards
Andrew
