"When his contemporaries described him as the English Cuvier, Sir Richard Owen was not flattered . . . he considered himself superior to Cuvier. By no one's assessment was Sir Richard Owen a happy-go-lucky guy, but he was a brilliant scientist whose expertise in vertebrate paleontology knew no peers (except possibly, well, Cuvier). By examining a single femur fragment of a New Zealand Moa, for instance, Owen predicted that it belonged to a giant flightless bird, and later discoveries proved him right."
