Husi

Husi are ostrich-like Rahi, also known as Pecking Birds.

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

On Metru Nui, the Husi occupied the rocky crags of Po-Metru until they were almost hunted to extinction by the Muaka. To protect the remaining Husi population, they were captured and placed in the Archives.

During the Great Cataclysm the Archives were badly damaged, and the Husi were able to escape. Several migrated to Po-Wahi on the island of Mata Nui, where the Po-Matoran tamed them. They were commonly traded at bazaars and markets in Po-Koro in exchange for goods and services. Specifically, the Matoran Trader Ahkmou traded a Comet Kolhii Ball for two Husi.

Wildlife displaced by the Bohrok swarms forced flocks of Husi to start competing for their food.

This Husi population returned to Metru Nui after the Bohrok swarms attacked Mata Nui.

Abilities & Traits
Although mostly docile, Husi can be dangerous due to their swift, lethal pecking. Lava Skimmers are also capable of running on lava and are known for knocking down anything in their way when they run.
