Kua ngaro te moa, waiho iho ko ngā wheua anake. He
Dinornis maxima tēnei
Ko ngā Moa he manu nunui, rite ki te emu, kei Aotearoa anake, engari, kua ngaro noa atu i te whenua. Ko te tino tohu o te moa, kāore kau ō rātou parirau, ahakoa he parirau itiiti ō ngā manu āhua whanaunga ana, pērā ki te Kiwi. Tekau pea ngā momo moa e mōhiotia ana e ngā tohunga o te mātauranga koiora, he rahi ētahi, he āhua itiiti ētahi. Ko ngā moa nunui ake ko te Dinornis robustus rāua ko te Dinornis novaezelandiae, e 3 mita pea te teitei, e 250 kirokaramu te taumaha. Ko ēnei momo moa ngā ariki kaihuaota o te ngahere.
