Definition
A large flightless bird from the early Cenozoic era, standing up to 7 feet tall with a powerful hooked beak, related to modern cranes and rails.
Etymology
From Greek 'dia-' (through) and 'trema' (hole), referring to openings in its skull structure. Named scientifically in the 19th century by paleontologists studying fossil remains.
Kelly Says
Diatrymae were apex predators of their time, roaming North America and Europe when mammals were still mostly small—they were like the terror birds of the northern hemisphere, showing how different Earth's ecosystems could be.
