This project aims to study the ecology of the extinct dodo bird to understand its diet, locomotion, and population structure. By applying advanced scientific methods, it seeks to uncover insights into the dodo's role in its ecosystem and the impact of human activity on extinction.
The dodo, Raphus cucullatus, is an enigmatic bird endemic to Mauritius, in the Indian Ocean.
This bird was discovered in 1598 and became extinct at the end of the 17th century.
Being thought as a fat and stupid bird, the dodo is famous in popular culture.
More importantly, the dodo is one of the first species known to have extinct because of human activity.
Although it was contemporaneous with humans for decades, and extinct for only three hundred years, we know very little about its ecology.
