Ergilornis (SciiFii)

The ostrich-crane (Ergilornis modernus) is a species of flightless bird that originally lived across Eurasia from the Eocene to the Pliocene as an extinct species of Ergilornis and was once extinct, but has since been brought back from extinction by SciiFii and introduced to the modern forests, open woodlands, and grasslands to help boost biodiversity. It is closely related to cranes, limpkins and trumpeters, these birds converge strongly with ostriches due to similar speciations to cursoriality. The ostrich-crane is a rather large bird, growing more than 1.6 meters (5.2 feet) tall and weigh around 80 kg. It is an omnivore that mainly feeds on seeds, leaves, fruits, insects, and small vertebrates The ostrich-crane is mostly a solitary animal that lives most of its life alone, but when breeding season arrives, males find females and try to attract them with their booming noises similar to emus and ostriches, and after mating season, females can lay more than 30 eggs at a time, which hatches around 4-5 months after being laid, the young are care for by their mothers after hatching until they're around 7-9 months old. The conservation status of the ostrich-crane is Least Concern due to successful conservation efforts and the ostrich-crane's wide range.
