EDITORS COMMENTS
This historic photograph captures Sir Richard Owen, a renowned English naturalist and paleontologist, standing next to the impressive skeleton of Dinornis maximus, also known as the Great Moa, at the British Museum in London. Dating back to the late Pliocene or early Pleistocene epoch, around 3.6 to 5 million years ago, Dinornis maximus was one of the largest species of the extinct flightless birds known as moas, native to New Zealand. Sir Richard Owen, who is considered the father of paleontology, played a significant role in the scientific discovery and classification of Dinornis maximus. He first described the species based on a partial skeleton discovered in New Zealand in 1843. In this photograph, taken likely in the late 19th or early 20th century, Owen's expertise and fascination for the natural world are evident as he examines the moa's skeleton with great interest. The Great Moa stood at an impressive height of 12 feet (3.6 meters) and weighed up to 550 pounds (250 kilograms). Its powerful legs and sharp, curved beak were adapted for foraging and defense. This photograph not only showcases the awe-inspiring size of Dinornis maximus but also highlights the importance of Owen's contributions to the scientific understanding of this extinct species. The discovery and study of Dinornis maximus and other moa species have provided valuable insights into the ecology and evolution of New Zealand's unique ecosystems. Today, the moas remain an essential part of the country's natural heritage and continue to captivate the imagination of scientists, researchers, and visitors alike.
