A set of female articulated legs belonging to the prehistoric Dromornis stirtoni discovered in Central Australia is expected to give researchers more accurate information about the size of the largest bird known on Earth.
Dromornis stirtoni, also known at Stirton's thunderbird, was a large flightless bird thought to have stood about 3 metres high and weighing up to 650 kilograms, which once roamed a site in Central Australia 8 million years ago.
