Do you remember the Dodo? This big, quiet bird lived only in Mauritius, in the India Qcean. 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 gogs, on their ships, and these animals killed dodos. Then the humans cut down trees and destoryed 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 aew never going to see a dodo alive again.
