Tasmanian Native-hen

Tribonyx mortierii Du Bus de Gisignies, B-AL 1840

The Tasmanian nativehen (alternate spellings: Tasmanian native-hen or Tasmanian native hen is a flightless rail and one of twelve species of birds endemic to the Australian island of Tasmania. Although many flightless birds have a history of extinction at the hands of humans, the species has actually benefited from the introduction of European-style agricultural practices in Tasmania. Its success may also be attributed to the recent extinction of its main predator, the thylacine. Source: Wikipedia
