Little bush moa
Moariki, the smallest moa. The layout puts it at John’s seat.
Proposed
Where we are now
A drawing and a spot — “@ Johns seat”. A pair, 1.2 m tall by 2 m wide; a small flock instead of a pair is under discussion.
Why it is in the plan
The smallest moa, at the one position the layout ties to a seat.
“Interestingly, there is really good D.N.A. from the Moariki, and they are one of a few select species currently being considered for De-Extinction.”
In deep time
Anomalopteryx didiformis, moariki. The smallest moa found, at around a metre tall, and common right through the South Island.
