DID YOU KNOW

Did you know about the Dodo? This bird that got wiped out by humans was too nice? So for those who don't know the Dodo is basically that can't fly with a massive beak, little wings. But this clumsy actually got one tragic stories in the animal kingdom. So basically 8 million years ago, get blown off course by a storm and they land on that's perfect for them. Zero predators, unlimited fruit, like paradise. So for thousands of years these pigeons just evolve in this perfect world. Their wings shrink down and their bodies like 44 pounds. But here's the thing. Completely forget what the word danger even means. And in 1598, Dutch sailors show up on the island. But the dodos make a fatal mistake. They walk to these humans. Big primates are super interesting. So they just waddle over, all curious and trusting. But the problem is are starving after months at sea. And a 44 pound bird that literally walks straight toward you, that's the perfect meal. So the sailors, thousands of dodos that didn't even know they should run away. But that's just of the disaster because the ships also brought rats, pigs and dogs. Spread across the island, every single dodo egg. And in just 64 years, was completely extinct.
