Lockdown Extinctions

At home, I am learning about zoology and that is learning about animals in biology.

   Extinctions

 Dodo birds                                                                

Dodo is extinct because the Dutch sailors came and killed the bird and ate them all to extinction.
The Dodo was easy to catch because the Dodo did not fear humans. The Dodo was a flightless
bird with a big round body and a large beak. The Dodo was native to the island Mauritius, east of
Madagascar. The Dodo’s closest relative was the Rodrigues solitaire.        

Mammoths

They are extinct because humans hunted them for their tusks, meat, bones, and skin. Scientists believe
that it (the extinction) could be because of climate change but there is a poor argument for it being
climate change. Hunting by humans made them more and more extinct. The mammoth had many
habitats like northern Asia, parts of Europe and North America during the last ice age. Mammoths have
big long tusks that people killed them to make jewelry. 

Moa 

The moa has much in common with the Dodo, but they got hunted by humans so that they could eat
them. They developed apart from humans and like most other mammals on the earth, they
became extinct too. The Moa lived in places like beech forests and in shrublands. The Moa is
also a flightless bird like the Dodo.
