New fossil penguin on the loose! Meet Kairuku waewaeroa, a giant penguin from New Zealand. This penguin has a really great story - the fossil was discovered by children on a trip with the Hamilton junior naturalist club!

Reddit user Phoenyx1980 writes "...At 1.4m tall they'd be good eating for the Haast Eagle..." Although giant penguins lived before Haast's Eagle, size as an anti-predator defence adaptation is a valid hypothesis. Thoughts, Giova and Daniel Ksepka? reddit.com/r/newzealand/c…

Do I know you? I recently participated to the italian paleoart contest putting together two extinct flightless birds from New Zealand, the Chatham penguin and the north Island moa. #paleoart

Ever since I saw a pigeon eat a cigarette butt in NYC, I have wondered about why some birds evolved larger or smaller brains. I am happy to share this article tying our NESCent research into the larger story of avian brain evolution. americanscientist.org/article/bird-b…
