A flightless Icon reborn in Art sculpture
The only surviving head of a dodo, which became extinct 344 years ago, is housed in the Natural History Museum in London, where it is considered a priceless piece of natural history.
The dodo (Raphus cucullatus) evolved without predators on Mauritius, growing large and flightless. With robust legs, a powerful hooked beak, and downy grey plumage, it filled a unique ecological niche—until human arrival disrupted its habitat and introduced invasive species.
Scientists have only recently managed to piece together clues about its life and habits (read about the secret life of the dodo). This dodo bird sculpture catalyses conversation about conservation and human impact on ecosystems, so it’s a good educational tool and a unique piece of natural history art.
