Greater gigaduck (SciiFii)

The greater gigaduck (Megalornis sesameiensis) is a species of anseriform that originally did not exist, but has since been created by SciiFii and introduced throughout the temperate rainforests and forests across South Island, New Zealand to help boost biodiversity. The greater gigaduck is most closely related to the anseranatids and anhimids (Australia's magpie geese and South America's screamers). The plumage of the greater gigaduck is hair-like and shaggy, being primarily yellow in color, whilst the wings are reduced, almost useless vestiges. The greater gigaduck has a long, graceful neck and strengthened neck vertebrae, allowing its heads to be raised far above its body. The greater gigaduck also has a therizinosaur-like pot belly, the result of a very long gut and large gizzard. Its feet has no webbing, though it walks in the characteristic duck-waddle when on the move. The greater gigaduck is one of the largest anatid, growing to be about the size of giant moas in height and weighing in at nearly half a metric ton. Greater gigaducks slowly plod through the forests of South Island, methodically plucking leaves and fruit. They are generally found as mated pairs or small family groups, keeping in touch with loud and disturbingly Gojira-like bellows and bleats ("Aiiiiiiiuuuurrrrrrgh!!!"). Their size renders the adult big yellows practically immune to attack, but infant mortality is high. The conservation status of the greater gigaduck is Vulnerable due to some habitat loss and historic poaching, however, thanks to the conservationists, the greater gigaduck is a protected species and is making a comeback.
