The real reason dodo birds went extinct - Leon Claessens

Uncover the most common misperceptions about dodos, and find out the truth of how the flightless birds actually went extinct.
--
Dodos are commonly considered brainless, blundering birds that were poorly adapted and doomed to die off, making their human-mediated extinction effortless and inevitable. But that’s not the case. So, what were dodos actually like? And what really caused their downfall? Leon Claessens uncovers the truth about these misunderstood and maligned creatures.

    The fame of the dodo depends on the literary context. In Chile, kids used to read a story called "Why you shouldn't hunt a Dodo", by Saúl Schkolnik, which tells the story of a weaver, who used to make fabric out of coconut fibers. But he and his wife hated the dodos because the bird used to eat these coconuts. When the dodos were gone, something weird happened: there were less palm tree shoots... because the palm needed to be ingested by the dodos first to start sprouting. As there were fewer trees, fewer hummingbirds were around the young palm trees, and therefore fewer orchids were pollinated... the crabs did not find the orchids to place their nests, which were made out of coconut fiber, which was the material that the weaver needed for making the fabric. The weaver and his wife were desolated. "What has happened?, they both asked themselves, without knowing that they were responsible for everything that happened to them for having killed the Dodos. They didn't know it and wouldn't know it, but you do know it, so if you see one, which won't be easy, you will know why you can't hunt a Dodo."

    The 🦤 is a fascinating yet tragic Bird of natural history. Native to the isolated island of Mauritius in the Indian Ocean, this unique avian species was marked by distinctive features-most notably, a large, hooked beak and a stout, robust body. Despite its seemingly clumsy appearance, the dodo had thrived in its isolated habitat, free from the presence of land mammals and predators. However, the arrival of Dutch people in the late 16th century, accompanied by introduced species like rats, pigs, and monkeys, set off a chain of events that would ultimately lead to the dodo's demise. The flightlessness of the dodo proved to be a fatal disadvantage in the face of these newfound threats. With no natural defenses against the invasive species brought by humans, the dodo population rapidly declined. The birds were not only hunted for food but also faced competition for resources from the introduced animals. The last confirmed sighting of a living dodo occurred in the late 17th century, and by the turn of the 18th century, this peculiar species had become extinct. The extinction of the dodo holds significance beyond its individual fate. It has come to symbolize the broader consequences of human impact on fragile ecosystems and the extinction crisis. The dodo's plight serves as a stark reminder of the irreversible consequences of environmental disruption, prompting reflection on the importance of conservation and the need to safeguard biodiversity in the face of ongoing anthropogenic changes. As we marvel at the curious tale of the dodo, we are urged to consider the broader implications for our responsibility in preserving the diversity of life on Earth.

ANd you can't deny that pretty much all of the fauna, especially megafauna extinction that have happened in the last 500 000 years at least were because of humans activities and sheer stupidity, not just H. sapiens obviously. But as for the last 150 000 years of extinction, including the global mass extinction of megafauna (which left little to no survivors) was undoubtedly the result of our actions and their impact on the environment, directly or indirectly. Pretty much all of the extinct species of the Quaternary/Holocene you could find would still be here today if we weren't si destructive and nocive.

    It would have been intresting to see the depiction by artist Ustad Mansur as it is likely one of the most accurate depictions we know of but this video is great otherwise.

    3:30 Bull, people knew species could disappear. A nobleman tried to save the Auroch in like the 16th or 17th century.

    Yet, humans still continue on blaming some animals' own "ineptitude" for being extinct or coming close to extinction. A well known example are giant pandas. A species that was endangered because of humans, yet the humans are still repeating the same mistakes they did to the dodo.

    Dodos (a.k.a. Diricawls) aren’t extinct, Muggles just can’t see them anymore.
