About Chatham Rail
The Chatham rail is an extinct flightless species of bird in the family Rallidae. It was endemic to Chatham, Mangere and Pitt Islands, in the Chatham archipelago of New Zealand. Genetic similarity with the Dieffenbach's rail is why many view this species as part of the genus Gallirallus.
