The dodo (Raphus cucullatus) is an extinct flightless bird that was endemic to the island of Mauritius, east of Madagascar in the Indian Ocean. European settlers changed the dodo's habitat and took away its supply of food. By 1681, there was no living dodo. It was extinct. Scientists published their findings in the Red Data Book. Thus, the correct answer is option D.
