Signed hardback copy included with this lot. The Moa bird was New Zealand's largest bird reaching almost four meters and weighing 230kg. It is thought they became extinct from over hunting by humans as early as the 15th century, although unsubstantiated sightings by whalers and sealers in the 18th and 19th century might suggest otherwise. Most of the discovered remains are now in Notes Works of Art
