Ostrich
About
An ostrich avoids danger by outrunning it, but a nest, corner or injured mate changes flight into violence. The bird pivots on long legs and kicks forward with a claw capable of opening flesh through ordinary clothing. Its height makes fences and low brush poor protection, and an angry adult can keep pace beside a rider long enough to strike again.

Traits
Special Attack
Hammer Kick: slashing, melee 5 ft, +3 to hit, 1d10+2. A Medium or smaller target makes a Tough save; on a failed save, it is pushed 5 ft and suffers -2 Quick until the end of its next turn.
Special Defense
Open-Ground Runner: an ostrich cannot be caught on foot across open terrain unless wounded, trapped or magically slowed. Moving away from its nest or young ends pursuit; enclosing it removes this escape and gives it +2 Mind.
