    Samuel T Turvey
    Institute of Zoology, Zoological Society of London, Regent s Park, London, United Kingdom
    PLoS ONE 7:e37902. 2012

  2. ncbi Postnatal ontogeny, population structure, and extinction of the giant moa Dinornis
    Samuel T Turvey
    School of Biological Sciences, University of Canterbury, PB 4800 Christchurch, New Zealand
    J Morphol 265:70-86. 2005
    ..The pattern of low fecundity and probable high longevity in both Dinornis species suggests that populations were vulnerable to loss of adults, primarily through hunting, rather than as a result of habitat destruction...
  3. ncbi Cortical growth marks reveal extended juvenile development in New Zealand moa
    Samuel T Turvey
    School of Biological Sciences, University of Canterbury, Private Bag 4800, Christchurch 8020, New Zealand
    Nature 435:940-3. 2005
    ..Both species of giant Dinornis moa attained their massive stature (up to 240 kg live mass) by accelerating their juvenile growth rate compared to the smaller emeid moa species, rather than by extending the skeletal growth period...
