3 Moa
Moa were forest-dwelling rattites and some were big but other species were turkey-sized. They were eaten to extinction by indigenous Maori in the C16th and early C17th. There were 13 different species. Other ratites include ostrich, emu, cassowary and rhea, and kiwi. They probably didn't stand around with their heads in the air unlike some museum mounts.Moa species included:Coastal moa (Euryapteryx curtus)Crested moa (Pachyornis australis)Eastern moa (Emeus Crassus)Giant moa (Dinornis giganteus)Heavy-footed moa (Pachyornis elephantopus)Large bush moa (Dinornis novaezealandiae)Little bush moa (Anomalopteryx didiformis)Mappin's moa (Pachyornis mappini)Slender bush moa (Dinornis struthoides)Stout-legged moa (Euryapteryx geranoides)Upland moa (Megalapteryx didinus)Greater broad-billed moa (Euryapteryx gravis)Slender moa (Dinornis torosus) -
4 Roroi
Recipe: Take some very fresh kumara, straight from the garden, if possible. Wash thoroughly, then grate. Place in a shallow baking dish and sprinkle with sugar. Over the top of the grated kumara place some broad slices of kumara. This will keep the mixture from hardening in the oven. Bake for an hour at 180C. When hot this is similar to a steamed pudding, and may be served with cream, or custard. when cold it may be sliced like bread, and spread with butter. -
