Quote:
The Hooded Pitohui, Pitohui dichrous is common and widespread throughout New Guinea.

This species, together with its close relatives, the Variable Pitohui and the Brown Pitohui, are the first documented poisonous birds. A neurotoxin called homobatrachotoxin found in the birds' skin and feathers, causes numbness and tingling in those touching the bird.





Call me when there is a venomous bird.

And you can call me, when a bird is found who can operate the trigger of a gatling gun.

apparently named for the sound made by the person attempting to eat it when they realize their tongue has gone numb?

Yes. This device must be invented.

I have this mental image of a 19th-century style illustration, possibly akin to a patent drawing, of a large flightless bird operating a Gatling gun.
