About These Birds
Mascarene Coot
Mascarene Coot (Fulica newtonii) is an extinct giant coot formerly inhabiting Mauritius and Réunion in the Indian Ocean. Larger than Eurasian Coot; likely flightless or near-flightless. Extirpated by hunting and introduced predators in the 17th–18th centuries. Known from subfossil remains and written accounts by early European visitors.
Hawaiian Rail
Hawaiian Rail (Zapornia sandwichensis) is an extinct flightless rail formerly endemic to the Island of Hawai'i. Known from a single 19th-century specimen and subfossil bones. Dark brown plumage with greatly reduced wings. Extirpated by the late 1800s due to introduced predators and habitat loss.
