Note: This historical image is not a factually accurate paleontological restoration.

Reason: Proportionally too similar to a takahē, and the legs would have been yellow in a live bird.[1]

You may ask further questions about the accuracy of this image at the image review page of Wikiproject Palaeontology on the English Wikipedia. Note that this image may be appropriate to illustrate obsolete paleontological views.
