Comprising a select club of large, long-legged birds, Ratites include some of the world's most iconic and peculiar avian inhabitants. Imagine towering emus sprinting across the Australian outback or the ancient, enigmatic cassowary with its striking blue skin and dinosaur-like demeanour lurking in the rainforests of northern Australia and New Guinea. Venture further into the land of Ratites, and you'll encounter the stately ostrich, Earth's largest and fastest-running bird, gallivanting across the African savannah like a relic from a prehistoric era.
Yet, the Ratite family doesn't stop at these renowned members. There's also the resilient rhea of South America and the flightless kiwi with its endearing quirkiness in New Zealand's forests. Each Ratite species boasts its own unique charm, revealing a fascinating tapestry of adaptations, behaviours, and ecological niches that have arisen throughout their evolutionary journey.

With alkaline paper making technology, this poster is acid-free, meaning the pH of the pulp that is used to form the paper is above 7 (neutral). The paper is also buffered with an alkaline reserve, such as calcium carbonate, to neutralise acid compounds absorbed from the atmosphere or formed through natural ageing. This ensures that your poster will last many years without any yellowing or discolouration.
Our poster is free from or low in OBA (optical brightener additives). This ensures that the natural white colour of the paper remains consistent under different lighting conditions. In contrast, the colour of papers that contain optical brighteners can shift depending on the light source. Additionally, the colour of OBA-free paper remains more consistent over time so that you can enjoy the poster for years without any shifts.
