The adult cassowary has no natural predators. Its eggs have predators such as lizards and white rats.
The biggest danger to the Cassowary today is introduced species such as domestic and wild dogs. eral pigs destroy their nests and compete with the cassowary for food. The greatest threat comes from Man, who has destroyed much of the cassowary's habitat, and whose cars are also responsible for many cassowary deaths.
