The Great Bustard is in fact the world's heaviest flying bird and has been extinct in Britain since the 1840's due to hunting, Poor Bustards. They were reintroduced in 2004 under a government licensed program, part of an effort to replace the human population of Britain that has been escaping due to horrible weather, poor buggers.
