ENDANGERED.

A South Island giant moa (Dinornis robustus) has turned the tables against its assailant, a young Fuller's eagle (Hieraaetus moorei). Her predation attempt has apparently gone horribly wrong; and with the eagle's broken wing, it's the moa that has the upper hand on the ground. Female giant moa were especially large compared to the males, and likely competed for them. Eggs were also enormous. They fed on a variety of tough or high-growing plants cropped with the bill. Their neck was usually held in a horizontal position, sort of like outdated depictions of Diplodocus and similar sauropods, but it could probably lift the head upwards if necessary - and necessary it likely was; as its primary predator attacked from above.
