"The Anatomy of the Dodo"

"The Anatomy of the Dodo" explores the physical structure of the extinct dodo bird, providing insight into its unique characteristics and adaptations. It examines details such as skeletal features, muscle arrangement, and how these elements contributed to its lifestyle, diet, and flightlessness. By studying its anatomy, scientists aim to understand how the dodo thrived in its natural environment before human activity and introduced predators led to its extinction. The work combines historical specimens and modern scientific techniques to offer a comprehensive view of this iconic bird’s biology.
