There's a belief a plan to resurrect the extinct Moa will have ample roll-on effects.
US company Colossal Bioscience has partnered with Ng膩i Tahu in a $50 million project to revive the flightless bird through gene editing.
Canterbury Museum's Senior Curator of Natural History Paul Scofield says it's a great eco-tourism opportunity.

Scofield says scientists would also be able to see how these birds affected the ecology of New Zealand.
