Riley learns about The Extinct Dodo

The Extinct Dodo

Picture by: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dodo

The extinct Dodo is a small bird but they are very extinct because people killed them.

A Dodo has a body of a small bird and has tiny legs. The legs are so small and pointed at the ground and  sticks out. Typically most are the prettiest of colours which shows off  brown and black fur. Furthermore most had a small beak made out of bone and their wings consisted of  the furriest wings. As the Dodo moved it left tiny footprints.

❤️While many dodos were found in a native island of Mauritius in the Indian Ocean it is thought that they are very extinct and are not seen now.  When they lived they dreamed under leaves or lay curled up on the beach. However at night the Dodo got killed.   If you are lucky you can find a fossil of it. Remember to take some roots as it is the Dodos favourite food. ☺

Dodos have became extinct 1600 years ago. In the main they lived on shellfish by the Indian Ocean in Mauritius. However they could also be tempted with crabs.  Additionally some liked to eat bulbs. People had to be careful when they were around Dodos as they could be scared!

Unfortunately because Dodos are dead this has meant they have been killed by people  and animals. Over the years so many Dodos have been killed that means today I can't see one in real life.

The Rock Unicorn by Riley Year 3

There are many rock unicorns on the earth but they have vanished because of their mysterious transporting.

A rock unicorn has a body of a horse and a rock horn. The horn is unbreakable pointed at the sky and sticks out from its hole. Typically most are the fanciest of colours, which flashes of thunder that looks like lighting bolts.  Furthermore they have a transporting chip made of the fanciest metal and their horn consist of the hardest rock material. As the rock unicorn moves it sends out collections of hard rocks.

While many rock unicorns are found in several areas  the rock unicorn only lives in caves.They are hoped that they are very nervous and therefore are not often noticed. During the sunset they dream under the rocks or curled up amongst the hard rocks. However at night the rock unicorn comes out and if you are close can be seen at the rock media.

Rock unicorns have a fairly limited diet.In the main they gobble on hard concrete,rocks and other hard materials. However they can be entertained with metal.Additionally some like to eat soft foam.Be careful when you are around rock unicorns because their bodies can give a hard explosion.

Unfortunately because rock unicorns have vanished this has meant they have been transported everywhere.Their horns are ground down to the ground which can be used to surprise even the ugliest of tyrants.Over the 90s so many unicorns have been killed that they have learnt to stay away from earth.
