Show Answer
Answer:
Correct Answer: A
Solution:
Hunting is the operation of killing the birds and the animals mainly for any of its use like flesh, feathers, skin, ivory and other uses.
The government has banned this due to the extinction of the wildlife and also maintains biodiversity for the existence of all the living organisms.
Hence the dodo is also extinct mainly because of the hunting by the people of Dutch. They are hunted for their flesh.
Since the dodo was a flightless bird they could be easily hunted and killed for its flesh. The increase in the poaching and also predation made this bird no more.
Hence dodo birds become extinct because of its flesh.
Till now there is no single complete dodo specimen.
So it is difficult to determine the color and the external appearance of it.
