the first bird was an Archaeopteryx. this article reveals that this bird is similar to an emu. they are similar because there hearing level equals about the same hertz. it is an desendant of the dinosaurs. it is also from around 150 years ago. this bird was discovered in 1861 with the first fossil being found in Bavaric, or southern germany.

Archaeopteryx lithographica is an ancient bird dating back to jurassic times. Scientists who made a 3D model of the bird's inner ear discovered that the bird's hearing is eqivalent to 2,000 hertz.

The first bird, Archaeopteryx, was found in Bavaria, Germany. It was said that this bird had an incredible hearing range like that of our modern day emu. A CT scanner uncovered that this bird could hear at a range of 2000 hertz.
