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.
Black-tailed Native-hen
Black-tailed Native-hen (Tribonyx ventralis) is a 30–38 cm flightless rail of inland Australia. Olive-brown with white flank spots, red eye, and upright black tail. Nomadic, following rainfall; forms large flocks at temporary wetlands. Grazes on grass and aquatic plants. Occasionally erupts in huge numbers after flooding. Not threatened.
