They live in the jungles of Papua New Guinea and can be quite dangerous as a full grown one has the leg power to break bones or bash skulls.  While, thankfully, I did not run into one hiking alone on the jungle trails, I did get to see one in a village less than an hour&#8217;s hike from our house.  This young muruk was trapped by some Pal people and they now keep it caged.  Once grown, I&#8217;m pretty sure (but not certain) that they&#8217;ll be eating it.  Anyways, it was a pretty cool looking bird and I&#8217;m glad I had the privilege of meeting one.<\/p>\n<p> <a rel=\"attachment wp-att-588\" href=\"https:\/\/blogs.ethnos360.org\/chris-hostetter\/wp-content\/blogs.dir\/488\/files\/2012\/06\/100_2534.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"300\" height=\"225\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-588\" alt=\"\" src=\"https:\/\/blogs.ethnos360.org\/chris-hostetter\/wp-content\/blogs.dir\/488\/files\/2012\/06\/100_2534-300x225.jpg\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blogs.ethnos360.org\/chris-hostetter\/files\/2012\/06\/100_2534-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/blogs.ethnos360.org\/chris-hostetter\/files\/2012\/06\/100_2534.jpg 480w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a> <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>One of the things on my &#8220;I want to see\/do in Papua New Guinea&#8221; list was to see the dangerous and feared muruk bird.
