They hunt massive birds why wouldn't humans be preceived as prey?
Because we'd shoot them.

Because Europeans would quickly drive them to extinction?Lone settlers would be easy prey, but a group of settlers armed with guns (and remember, guns didn't figure into it until the arrival of humans) would spell the end of these things.They hunt massive birds why wouldn't humans be preceived as prey?
Still think the humans have a chance![]()
I think it was due to climate change at the end of the last glacial period more than to the arrival of humans.I believe that australia was more jungle-like before the aborigines came, and then the humans came and changed the area entirely. I wonder how that might affect the European's approach to colonization.

Please their punny weapons will be usless against them. They will come like Swordfish dive bombers and the bullets will be ineffective. Just like bullets hitting swordfish bombers they will be useless, unless they hit something vitale .
on another note do Moa's have any potentail use for farming purposes, pulling stuff or riding?

I would doubt it. They were apparently slow moving, slow growing, and they generally kept their heads down for feeding. So it's not likely that they would make a good domesticate.
