Dodo. Computer illustration of a dodo (Raphus culcullatus). Roughly the size of a swan, this extinct bird was heavily-built, clumsy and flightless. It lived on the island of Mauritius and became extinct around 1681. The number of dodos quickly dwindled following the arrival of humans to its island. All but defenceless, these birds were ill-equipped to cope with the new hunters, loss of habitat and the competition from introduced animal species such as pigs and rats

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the remarkable dodo, a bird that once roamed the island of Mauritius but tragically became extinct around 1681. The computer illustration vividly portrays the dodo's appearance and characteristics. Roughly the size of a swan, this flightless creature was heavily-built and notoriously clumsy. The image serves as a poignant reminder of how human presence can have devastating consequences on vulnerable species. With the arrival of humans to its habitat, the number of dodos rapidly declined. These defenseless birds were ill-equipped to withstand the pressures brought upon them - hunters seeking their feathers and meat, loss of natural habitat due to human activities, and fierce competition from introduced animal species like pigs and rats. As we gaze at this mesmerizing depiction, we are transported back in time to witness an extraordinary creature that once graced our planet. Its uniqueness lies not only in its physical attributes but also in its tragic fate as one of Earth's most iconic examples of extinction. Nature enthusiasts, zoologists, or anyone captivated by wildlife will find themselves captivated by this stunning portrayal captured by Science Photo Library. It serves as a powerful symbol urging us to reflect on our responsibility towards preserving biodiversity and protecting endangered species for generations to come – so that no other magnificent creatures suffer the same fate as the dodo.
