Gastornis, a large flightless bird that lived during the late Paleocene to early Eocene epochs, likely faced few natural predators due to its size. However, young or juvenile gastornis may have been vulnerable to large carnivorous mammals, such as early members of the order Carnivora, and possibly large reptiles. Additionally, competition for food and habitat with other large herbivores could have also impacted their survival. Overall, while adult gastornis had few predators, their young faced more risks in their environment.

What did the gastornis evolve into?

Scientist are not officially sure what species, Gastornis evolved into, but probably evolved into a group of large, predatory birds called Phorusrhacids or 'Terror Birds'. The only information that contradicts this is the fact Terror Birds originated in South America, while Gastornis was native to North America. So most likely, Terror birds evolved from a close cousin of Gastornis, that existed in South America, during the time Gastornis roamed. This means that the actual species of Gastornis may have gone extinct without evolution.
