Richard Owen's Giant Mystery.

 Tuesday 18th of August I was on a google meet for literacy Why? Because Quarantine. In my literacy group we have read about Richard Owen's Giant Mystery. I finished the book and have answered some questions. In the book John Rule sailed all the way from Australia to give Richard Owen's A bone( A Thai Bone). Richard Owen's looked at the huge bone and said that he didn't want to waste his time on a bone. John Rule Explained to him that his Nephew Harris was the first t European Trader to live in the East Coast. Once taking the bone in after hearing the rest of the story he realised that It was a bird bone. It was like an Ostrich Thai bone but much bigger. In the bone he found a honey come like structure in the Thai( Only birds have a structure like that. He Finally figured it out what type of bird it was.

Flightless bird. The Maori new about this Gigantic bird They name it the Moa.
