	Maned Duck - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		This 45-51cm duck looks like a small goose, and feeds mostly by grazing.
		The flightless, aberrant New Zealand species Chenonetta finschi (Finsch's Duck) which was formerly believed to constitute a monotypic genus (Euryanas) has been determined to belong to Chenonetta.

	Holdaway et al.-Extinction of Finsch’s duck
		Late Holocene extinction of Finsch’s duck (Chenonetta finschi), an endemic, possibly flightless, New Zealand duck
		Abstract Finsch’s duck (Chenonetta finschi), an extinct, possibly flightless New Zealand endemic, was widely distributed and apparently abundant immediately before human settlement of New Zealand, but its bones have rarely been identified in archaeological sites.
		Its extinction has been variously attributed to habitat changes, predation by the introduced Pacific rat (Rattus exulans), and human predation.
