Dodo Keychain

The dodo was a flightless bird from the island of Mauritius. It stood about 3 feet tall, weighing about 44 lbs. The dodo has been extinct since the mid-to-late 17th century. It is commonly used as the archetype of an extinct species because its extinction occurred during recorded human history, and was directly attributable to human activity. The Dodo had greyish plumage, a 9-inch bill with a hooked point, very small wings, stout yellow legs, and a tuft of curly feathers high on its rear end.
