Wonderful Set of four Egg Fragments – Aepyornis maximus
An exceptional trio of egg fragments from Aepyornis maximus, the legendary elephant bird native to Madagascar. These birds belonged to a unique and isolated genus of giant flightless birds, now extinct. Reaching up to 2.70 meters in height, they laid the largest eggs known in the animal kingdom, with a staggering capacity of 8.50 liters.
The fragments display the robust shell structure and natural texture typical of this species, making them an important and evocative piece of prehistoric life. Aepyornis had strong, tall legs with bone structures somewhat reminiscent of galliform birds, adding further scientific and anatomical interest to the specimen.
A perfect addition for collectors, natural history enthusiasts, or any wunderkammer collection.
