Cassowary and Aussie Megafauna
Quick question: why did cassowaries evolve their claws?
The cassowary has gotten a reputation as the world's deadliest bird, with a kick that can disembowl a victim. But aside from humans, dingoes, and crocs, there aren't many big creatures that threaten cassowaries. Then i got to thinking about Aussie animals living and extinct and thouhght about thylacines, marsupial lions, megalainia, quinkana, wonambi, etc. Did cassowaries evolve their killer claw and personality in response to Australias crazy scary megafauna? And is some of their behavior and defense a biological anachronism against the frighting animals they once lived with? Perhaps a male cassowary would risk life and limb to save it's hatclings a ferocious quinkana croc or menacing megalainia!
(totally wanna sketch this scenario now!!)

Feral Dinosaurs
At around 11 pm, some apartment owners notice weird trills and moos coming from the alley. One of them turned their flashlight on and all were frozen in a mix of awe and terror. In the alleyway, were wild dinosaurs rummaging through their dumpsters
La Brea Zoo
So my idea: what if the museum not only had fossils and models of the extinct animals, but live animal exhibits of some of the modern creatures found in La Brea/Pleistocene L.A.? Maybe some California condor, capybara, skunk, dung beetle, owl, aviary, reptile enclosure, small creatures with random factoids about the prehistoric environment and how modern and extinct animals once roamed together. You could make an enclosure that has some cool replica of a smilodon skull or mammoth bones to make it look cool and natural. (maybe I'll sketch a model of my dream La Brea zoo).
