It is estimated that a takahe requires about 300 K cal metabolizable energy daily for maintenance and that a bird feeding exclusively on grass will excrete about eight metres of faeces a day.

Preliminary results of research into the present status of takahe (Notornis mantelli) in the Murchison Mountains

Notornis, 21 (4), 312-317

J.A. Mills; R.B. Lavers (1974)

Article Type: Paper

Breeding and post-breeding counts of takahe (Notornis mantelli) were made during 1972-73 and 1973-74 in three study areas within the Murchison Mountains: Takahe Valley and Point Burn, Eyles-Wisely, and Miller Peak. The Takahe Valley and Point Burn population declined markedly between 1966-67 and 1968-69 but only slightly between 1969-70 and 1973-74. Indications are that the Eyles-Wisely and Miller Peak populations may have declined only slightly since 1966 and actually increased in the present surveys. The decline in Takahe Valley and Point Burn is possibly related to suboptimum habitat.
