Bush moa

The bush moa or lesser moa ("Anomalopteryx didiformis") is an extinct bird from New Zealand. It was about 1 meter long. It weighed about 30 kilograms. It lived all over New Zealand.
The bush moa had a sharp beak. It could not fly. It is thought that it ate twigs and other tough plant material.
The bush moa had predators such as the Haast's eagle and Eyles' harrier. All bush moas died 500-600 years ago, after humans came to New Zealand.
