The dodo is an extinct bird of the Columbidae family.
---
Known to be the emblem of extinct species, the dodo was endemic to the forests of island of Mauritius.
Little is known about its diet, but it is likely that it ate fruits and seeds.
The reason for its extinction and undoubtedly caused by human.
It was a little hunted bird because of the taste of its meat, but the wolves and pigs imported to the island ate the eggs in the nests and killed the birds.
In addition to this, the deforestation of the forest has also led to the extinction of the species.
It is believed to have be extinct a few years after 1662, less than a century after its discovery.
Resurrection attempts are planned, in hopes of reviving the species or creating a similar bird using its DNA and that of other close relatives birds of the Columbidae family.
