Taku

Taku are duck-like Rahi.

History
The Taku species was created by the Makuta using Viruses and Liquid Protodermis to be one of the Rahi to inhabit the Matoran Universe.

After the Great Cataclysm struck Metru Nui, a number of Taku migrated to the newly-formed island of Mata Nui and integrated into its ecosystem, establishing themselves on the coasts of Le-Wahi.

When Toa Mata Lewa first arrived on Mata Nui, he almost killed a Taku when he landed on a tree branch and dislodged it from its nest. Surprised, he accidentally activated his Elemental Powers and made it float back up to its nest, causing the Toa to realize his control over Air.

When the Bohrok swarms were unleashed on Mata Nui, Gahlok activity off the coast forced Takea closer to shore, where the sharks would occasionally attack the Taku.

After the rediscovery of Metru Nui, the Taku migrated back to the island city.

Abilities & Traits
The Taku are close relatives of the Gukko, though much smaller in size. Unlike their scavenging cousins, the Taku are aquatic, capable of diving to great depths in order to catch fish.
