Line 4: Was the dodo really hunted to extinction? Surely '''not''' for food. The Dutch name was ''walgvogel''. Walg=loathing vogel=bird. Even after days of kooking the beast was inedible and the saylors refused to eat its flesh. [[Jcwf]] :Dodo had no enemies on the island. With human traffic, it was gone within 80 years. The forests it lived in were destroyed and the animals settlers brought with them, pigs, rats, and cats, destroyed the dodo's nests. Will add something. [[User:Ortolan88\|Ortolan88]]
