I shudder to think of the size of the kind of worms that a chocobo would eat.

True. Look at the number of deaths due to hippos in any given year. I think Ardent and sis are safe for the time being, however, since the birds look rather curious, rather than seeing them as invading their home (at least thus far).

Yes, but hippos are mean. Really, really mean. These weird dogs look friendly, if a little puzzled.
SubaruStephen:
My prediction for next strip: they go jousting.
Loki:
The don't know the first rule of RPGs with free-roaming monsters: when fleeing from a monster, retreat only into known terrain - otherwise you may attract more monsters.

Edit: Those would appear to be a species of Phorusrhacidae, known as "terror birds".

I disagree. They lack the hooked beak, they look more like Gastornis. Although it was historically considered to be a predator like the terror birds, more recent studies of bone isotopes suggest it ate plants.
Regardless, the giant birds in the comic do not have hooked beaks, which suggests to me they are not predatory. Not that I'd still be scared as hell of a bird the size of a horse of course.

They are obviously chocobos

That would make the big-ass shadow of shit in the sky something akin to the Omega Weapon then.
