A Search for What Remains of the World's Extinct Creatures
Michael Blencowe
Around the turn of 1800 the naturalist Georges Cuvier and fossil hunters Mary Anning and Gideon Mantell first proved that animals could go extinct. Fascinated by the phenomenon, Michael Blencowe travels the globe to visit the last known whereabouts and surviving museum specimens of 11 species killed off by humans within historical record. They include the great auk, the upland moa, Steller’s sea cow and, most famous of all, the dodo.
