Trivia
- The terrorbird is widely based on prehistoric birds, many species of which roamed the earth millions of years ago. The most notable of these were Gastornis (living roughly 60-35 mya, found across Europe and North America) and the Phorusracidae, a group of large predatory birds that lived from about 60-2 mya, and lived most recently in North and South America. Gastornis was not a Phorusracidae. The gastornis reached an adult height of 5.5 to 6.5 feet (1.75–2 m), and the Phorusracidae were anywhere from 3 to 10 feet tall, (1–3 m). The phorusracidaes are also widely nicknamed "Terror birds."
- There is a glitch where you can close the gate on a terrorbird and it cannot move and it is still attackable. This glitch has yet to be fixed
- The natural historian mentions terrorbirds having clawed fingers on their wings, this is an identical trait to the prehistoric bird Titanis, which suprisingly was in the Phorusracidae family.
