Description[]
Haast's Eagle (Harpagornis moorei) was a species of massive eagles that once lived on the South Island of New Zealand. The species was the largest eagle known to have existed. Its prey consisted mainly of gigantic flightless birds that were unable to defend themselves from the striking force and speed of these eagles, which at times reached 80 km/h. The Haast's Eagle became extinct about 1400, when its major food sources, the moa, were hunted to extinction by humans living on the island and much of its dense-forest habitat was cleared.
Shirou's History Fact[]
A giant eagle with a tough body, strong legs and claws and a sharp, hook-shaped beak. Also known as haast's eagle. It is considered fairly heavy for a flying bird. Before humans came along, it stood at the top of the food chain in New Zealand. However, as the moa, which was its prey went into extinction, this bird also disappeared.
