beardedbruce BS: who killed the hairy mammoth? (107* d) RE: BS: who killed the hairy mammoth? 02 Sep 17

And the flocks from horizon to horizon would be a lot fewer individuals, if they were "hairy passenger mammoth pigeons" ( or should that be "mammoth hairy passenger pigeons" ? )



But the last known living dodo was taken to Germany circa 1760 . The drawing in the plates of the 18th century Chamber's Encyclopaedia ( and used by Lewis Carrol) is of that animal.

Stuffed after it died, thought to be destroyed by WW II bombing. There may very well be beaks and claws around, but nothing like the amount of Mammoth and Passenger pigeon remains.


And they probably taste a lot like Emu ( which, if you have ever seen a flock of, do NOT need to be crossed with hairy or any other kind of mammoth!) A flock of nine foot tall nasty birds with 4-6 inch spikes on the feet is not to be trifled with!
