Monster Penguin?
A monster penguin fossil has been discovered in New Zealand!
The discovery of Crossvallia waiparensis, a monster penguin from the Paleocene Epoch (between 66 and 56 million years ago), adds to the list of gigantic, but extinct, New Zealand fauna. These include the world’s largest parrot, a giant eagle, a giant burrowing bat, the moa and other giant penguins. If this gigantic penguin was found to be alive it would stand at 1.2 metres tall!
