RIP Dodo by

Own a part of history. Dodo is the name, extinction is his game. On a serious note, This piece really my reaction to how the dodo became extinct. We can blame ourselves ,us human beings, for all the wrong things happening in the world. Greed is wrong etc etc etc.

    we could blame humanity… or we could blame just the portugese. Ah, but what is knowing one’s history when you cannot change what has been done? This is a really good profile because it gives the Dodo, a magnificent bird, dignity. In comtemporary culture we think it a mindless bird doomed to die. But this isn’t the case; the dodo was georgeous!

  • Thanks, I is amazing to me that humans can drive animals to extinction like the dodo. I would have thought that" gee the dodo bird supply is running low, maybe we should stop hunting and eating them". But there are other cases that sadden me, like the tazmanian devil is in danger because of that tumor/desease that has plagued it. At least in this case there are people who are trying to save if from extinction.

    Very well done tribute! We must remember these and other creatures like them that have passed. And we must try to do what we can to stop this from happening now and in the future! I could go on but I won’t. . . . . . . . Congrats on the well deserved feature!

  • I did look at other creatures when I was thinking about making this art, I was just attracted to the dodo, since it has more popularity and, like Narcissus17 said, people think its a mindless bird. I like to go for the under dog. Go dodo go, fly my pretty lol
