3D scan of a Southern stout-legged moa (Euryapteryx curtus gravis) skeleton from the Holocene. Moas are extinct birds that lived on New Zealand. This skeleton was donated to the museum by Dr. Julius Ritter von Haast in 1884.
This specific skeleton is housed backstage, but complete skeletons of both a southern giant moa (Dinornis robustus, formally called Dinornis maximus) and another stout-legged moa are number 77 of the NHM Top 100 and can be found in Hall 30 of the NHM Vienna. Three more skeletons of different moa species are on display in the Ice Age (Eiszeit) corridor.
