......in the year 1598AD, Portugese sailors landing on the shores of the island of Mauritius discovered a previously unknown species of bird, the Dodo.
Having been isolated by its island location from contact with humanity, the dodo greeted the visitors with child-like innocence.
The sailors mistook the gentle spirit of the dodo, and its lack of fear of the new predators, as stupidity.
They dubbed the bird "dodo" (meaning something similar to a simpleton in the Portugese tongue).
Many dodo were killed by the human visitors, and those that survived man had to face the introduced animals. Dogs and animals soon became feral when introduced to the Mauritian eco-system.
By the year 1681, the last dodo had died, and the world was left worse with its passing.
...R.I.P
