Giant mommy moa gf

I think Moa are a cool candidate for de-extinction, cause we have close relatives, they wouldn't be too dangerous, and we could house them well in zoos. Plus I'd super like to see one.

Not too dangerous, weren't they identified as the predator in a lot of Maori stories about man hunting birds?

[–] Devi 2 points 5 months ago

They were certainly feared but aren't as dangerous as say, a tiger, which we keep regularly. Their poo suggests a herbivorous diet so unlikely to be hunting anything regularly, probably more like a cassowary that attack for defence.

Wait which sign means female / male?

[–] Tlaloc_Temporal@lemmy.ca 2 points 5 months ago* (last edited 5 months ago)

The one with the plus at the bottom is female, the one with the arrow at an upwards angle is male.
