The southern giant terror bird (Dinornis robustus) is a species of terror bird, also known as the South Island giant terror bird. Like other terror birds, they cannot fly. The origin of these birds may be due to the early ancestors of terror birds being able to fly and reach the South Island of New Zealand. The southern giant terror bird is the largest among terror birds. Adult female birds can reach a shoulder height of up to 2 meters and a total height of 3.6 meters, making them the tallest known bird species. It lives in the lowlands of the South Island of New Zealand. It may have become extinct as early as the 13th century.
