Eremopezus more than a large emu—and more than 10 kg—slightly more than the largest living storks (which reach over 150 cm in height) and the shoebill. The general limit for weight in flying birds is at about 25 kg, the exceptional "Argentavis magnificens" with its size and weight of a good-sized adult human notwithstanding as it evolved under unusual ecological conditions. Large males of the kori bustard ("Ardeotis kori") and great bustard ("Otis tarda") are perfectly capable of flight, while weighing in excess of 20 kg. A wing loading of c. 25 kg/m is the known limit for bird flight under
Edwardsiella tarda along with maintaining suitable sanitation of water. Other stress factors include drastic changes in temperature, pH, and dissolved oxygen levels in the water. In order to manage properly for edwardsiellosis water must be checked constantly in order to keep fish stocks completely free of pathogens. Some of the most recent research done on "Edwardsiella tarda" was performed by Griffin et al. (2013) to assess what the literature refers to as "the intra-specific variability of "E. tarda" isolates from 4 different fish species in the eastern United States." These intra-specific variations that they were looking for occur in other parts of
