File:Kloon 2.jpg

In the absence of predators (for the adults), the kloon has adopted a totally terrestrial way of life. The forelimbs, with the wings, have disappeared completely and the hind limbs earn the weight of the whole body. The original four toes of the pterosaur foot have remained. The kloon's feet are quite dexterous. While standing on one leg it can use the opposite foot to lift up awkwardly shaped food to the mouth. It is a slow-moving animal and spends much of its time deep in the undergrowth of the forests of North Island.
