The Dodo bird may have survived for 30 years longer than was earlier thought. 
Sorry for the late post. The name Dodo comes from the Portuguese word for simpleton. The pigeons, doves, parrots, shorebirds and the birds of prey are the closest relatives of dodo birds. The Dodo was first encountered in the late 1500s or early 1600s and was probably extinct by the mid 1600s.

The dodo birds may have survived 30 years longer then was earlier thought due to humans hunting them for food especially the new introduction of the rats, dogs and the pigs.
