The Dodo was a flightless bird, with a big body, short legs, and large beak. Their feathers were greyish-blue, and they had tiny wings which were not built for flying. They could grow up to a metre tall, which is as high as some of your friends! With their big, round, yellow eyes, Dodo birds were quite a sight to behold.  \nNow, let's travel to the home of the Dodo, the beautiful island of Mauritius. Mauritius is a small tropical island located in the Indian Ocean, far away from any land. The Dodo loved the forests of this island, where they could roam freely and safely. Because they had no natural enemies, Dodo birds Unfortunately, their peaceful life on the island didn't last forever.  \nlived peacefully without the need to fly.  \nLet's talk about what the Dodo bird loved to eat. Dodo birds were herbivores, which means they only ate plants. Their favourite treats were fruits, nuts, seeds, bulbs and roots. They used their big beak to crack open hard fruits and nuts. So, if you were a Dodo bird, your diet would be all green!  \nYou might be wondering how Dodo birds defended themselves from threats. Since they couldn't fly, Dodo birds had to rely on their strong beak and size for protection. They could give a strong peck if they felt threatened! However, their main defense was their isolation on the island of Mauritius. Unfortunately, this defense wasn't enough to protect them from humans.  \nFinally, let's explore the relationship between Dodo birds, humans and other animals. When humans first arrived on Mauritius, Dodo birds were not scared of them. However, humans hunted them for food, and introduced other animals like dogs, pigs, and monkeys which also preyed on the Dodo. This, along with habitat destruction, led to the sad extinction of the Dodo bird in the late 17th century. So, the story of the Dodo bird is a reminder for us to protect all creatures and their habitats.  \nDodo Bird  \nName:  \n\n| Solve each problem.\u003Cbr>Use the article to answer the question.\u003Cbr>1) What did the Dodo bird look like?\u003Cbr>A.
