00:00The dodo, a flightless bird once roaming the forests of Mauritius,
00:05didn't vanish because it was dumb.
00:08It vanished because paradise betrayed it.
00:12Four million years ago, pigeons found this island,
00:16a land without predators, full of food and calm skies.
00:22Over time, they grew heavier,
00:25lost their wings to comfort and their fear to peace.
00:30That same peace became their downfall when Dutch sailors arrived in 1598,
00:35bringing rats, pigs and dogs that raided nests and destroyed eggs.
00:41Within a century, the dodo was gone.
00:44Not from stupidity, but from innocence.
00:48A creature born in safety, ended by the chaos of man.
