Giant Moa is the greatest bird which cannot fly in history. It inhabited the New Zealand, but it was annihilated by the 19th century by a human being. There are not a snake and a fierce animal in the New Zealand. It will have forgotten to fly because there was not a foreign enemy. However, a human being was the greatest enemy. It have made edible. Giant Moa has disappeared before long. However, it still may barely inhabit now towards New Zealand interior.
