Answer 2

D. dodo

Explanation:

The dodo is a flightless bird that is extinct now. It was endemic to the island of Mauritius, east of Madagascar in the Indian Ocean. The dodo's closest genetic relative was the also-extinct Rodrigues solitaire, the two forming the subfamily Raphinae of the family of pigeons and doves. The closest living relative of the dodo is the Nicobar pigeon. Subfossil remains show the dodo was about 1 metre tall and may have weighed 10.6 – 17.5 kg in the wild. The dodo's appearance in life is evidenced only by drawings, paintings, and written accounts from the 17th century.  

Option D is the answer.
