        Thhere was apparently a breed of turtle that became extinct so quickly that the only trace of it we have is a long description of how easy it is to catch and how it has the most delicious meat in the world.

        I am from Mauritius and based on the journal entries made by the Dutch during their short stay on the island, the dodo meat was not very tasty. They also did not like to be in captivity and stopped eating.. Really sad story

        Nobody who ate the thing ever gave it a good review. Too fatty and the meat was unpleasant in flavour, but when you're out of salt beef and and ship's biscuit, it's amazing what you'll try. It was probably pigs and rats which did for the dodo in the final years.
