Gent in 1661: Paradise transplanted and restored in a most artfull and lively representation of the several creatures, plants, flowers, and other vegetables, in their full growth, shape, and colour: shown at Christopher Whiteheads at the two wreathed posts in Shooe-Lane, London. Artist Adam had in Paradice, when the whole Creation of Animals J.H.

Bones found recently on its home, Mauritius, in the Indian Ocean, may allow scientists to reconstruct the ecological world of the dodo before humans arrived and it departed. The New York Times The stocky flightless bird became extinct at the end of the 1600's, less than two centuries after European explorers discovered its home, the Indian Ocean island of Mauritius . Beyond passing descriptions, little evidence of the bird has survived — a preserved skin here, an isolated leg bone there.

Dodo was really a pigeon Old Print of a Dodo Images of the Dodo Source : Oxford University Museum of Natural History Most people believe that the dodo was a fat, ungainly bird, which died out because it was too slow to escape when hunted. Is this really true? What did the Dodo look like? There is very little solid evidence of the dodo’s appearance. The head and foot in the Museum represent the most complete remains of a single dodo. Many other museums have dodo skeletons, but these are composites, made up from the bones of different birds. Top Oxford's painting George Edwards' 1759 painting shows the dodo surrounded by other unique species from Mauritius, and elsewhere.

About Mauritius Old Print of a Dodo The dodo was a flightless bird native only to the island of Mauritius in the Indian Ocean. The dodo was a flightless member of the pigeon family. Fully grown dodos weighted about 23 kg (50 pounds). Around 1505 the Portuguese became the first Europeans to discover the dodo. By 1681 it had been driven to extinction by humans and the feral dogs, pigs, rats, and monkeys introduced by Europeans to Mauritius. The dodo was not the only Mauritian bird driven to extinction in recent centuries. Of the 45 bird species originally found, only 21 still survive. Two bird species closely related to the dodo also became extinct: the Réunion solitaire (raphus solitarius) . by 1746, and the Rodrigues solitaire (pezophaps solitaria ) by 1790. Reports of sightings of living dodos in the 1990s on Mauritius prompted William J. Gibbons to mount expeditions to search for them. None were found. Physical Characteristics Mass: 13 to 23 kg.
