| We have wiped out more species than I can name, from the dodo to the moa to the quagga to the thylacine. |
|
| Living relatives of moa include the emus, ostrich, and kiwi, which are members of a bird group called ratites. |
|
| As of 2013 Sherritt International of Canada operates a large nickel mining facility in Moa. |
|
| The largest islands in the strait include Prince of Wales Island, Horn Island, Moa, and Badu Island. |
|
| Some of the birds pictured are long extinct, including moa and Haast's eagles. |
|
| Extinct species include the South Island goose, South Island giant moa, harpagornis and South Island piopio. |
|
| Moa raised capital to fund its international expansion by listing on the NZX sharemarket last year, the report added. |
|
| The upper part of the drainage basin of the Moa River is located in the south of this region. |
|
| Traditionally, biologists have placed the flightless moa with the modern ratites, the taxonomic group that includes other flightless birds such as ostriches and kiwis. |
|
| The fossil record is also poor for moa and the aepyornid elephant birds, in that both are mainly known from remains that date from historical times. |
