Do you remember the Dodo? This big, quiet bird lived only in Mauritius, in the India Ocean. It did not fly, but it was not in danger from other animals there. So it was not afraid. Then humans came to Maturitius. They brought new animals, like dogs, on their ships, and these animals killed dodos. Then the humans cut down trees and destroyed the birds' homes. And some of them hunted dodos - not for food, but because they liked hunting. By about 1680, the last dodo was dead. This happened a long time ago, but we cannot forget the dodo - and we are never going to see a dodo alive again.
