- W4243976278 abstract "QUITE recently rumours have reached us from New Zealand to the effect that two living specimens of the colossal struthious birds, the Moas, have been captured in the province of Otago, which are to be taken to Christchurch. That the genus Dinornmis, to which they belong, has been extinct for some time is the general impression, and it is based on evidence of no inconsiderable weight. Nevertheless, there are many reasons for the belief that it is not long since individuals of that ostrich-like group peopled parts of New Zealand. In 1870 Dr. Haast discovered kitchen-middens made up of fragments of Moas of different species, mixed up with bones of seals, dogs, and gulls, together with pieces of chalcedony, agate, &c., which evidently indicate that these gigantic birds were contemporaneous with the ancient human inhabitants of the islands. A human skeleton having been found with a Dinornis egg between its arms is also evidence in the same direction, as is the recent discovery of the neck of one of these birds with the muscles and integuments preserved." @default.
