New Zealand is a large island near Australia. In the Late Holocene, New Zealand gets pushed closer to Australia than today, allowing some Australian birds and bats to fly to New Zealand.

New Zealand Forest

This is were the largest birds roam, the moa. New Zealand's forests are home to many species of animals not found almost anywhere else on earth.

Mammals

  • Zealand Saber Cat - Descended from feral cats introduced to New Zealand by humans. Hence their name, they evolved small sabres and is now about the size of a large dog.
  • New Zealand Giant Dylanus - A species of wild dylanus native to New Zealand. It is the largest dylanus species on earth, second only to the Madagascar giant dylanus. It is an omnivore. Same species alive today.
  • New Zealand Common Dylanus - Descended from introduced feral dylanuses. It is an omnivore. It is similar to its ancestors.
