AI overview

The dodo was a large, flightless bird that lived on the island of Mauritius in the Indian Ocean until it went extinct, and it is notable as a member of the pigeon and dove family whose closest living relative today is the Nicobar pigeon. The dodo's extinction makes it a significant example of a species that disappeared, and it shared this fate with its closest relative, the Rodrigues solitaire, another flightless bird from a nearby island.

Dront dodo, dodo (Raphus cucullatus) – wymarły gatunek dużego ptaka z rodziny gołębiowatych (Columbidae), podrodziny treronów (Raphinae). Występował endemicznie na wyspie Mauritius. Najprawdopodobniej ostatnie ptaki tego gatunku zabito w 1662. Choć to właśnie dodo jest najczęściej wspominanym wymarłym gatunkiem, niemal nic nie wiadomo o życiu tych ptaków na wolności.
