<birdfyi-bird slug="zapornia-monasa"></birdfyi-bird>Flightlessness left the Kosrae Crake (Zapornia monasa) with no defence against introduced predators. Endemic to Kosrae in the Caroline Islands of Micronesia, the rail had dark plumage and much-reduced wings, and is known today from bones and a single nineteenth-century description. It disappeared after Polynesian and later European settlement, most likely through predation by introduced rats and cats. The IUCN Red List classifies the species as Extinct.
