Gone, but not forgotten. ๐ฆค Todayโs Exhibit of the Day is one of the most famous birds in history: the Dodo (Raphus cucullatus). This iconic species is a lesson in extinction. Around the year 1600, Dutch soldiers found the Dodo on Mauritius Island, east of Madagascar. Less than 80 years later, it was gone. Deforestation, hunting, and the introduction of invasive species contributed to the downfall of this flightless bird.
Though it died out before photography, the Dodoโs skeleton offers clues about what this species was like. For example, this bird couldnโt flyโits wings were small for its size, its sternum had no keel (the support birds need for flight muscles), and it had thick leg bones made for walking. You can see a Dodo skeleton in the Museumโs Hall of Biodiversity.

I saw something Iโve been wanting to see my whole life. This dodo. Ever since I saw the Wild Kratts there, Iโve needed to go. And today, I finally went. As soon as I entered the museum, I dragged my dad straight there. I tried to hold back my tears, but I failed. I will never forget this
Itโs National Dolphin Day! Letโs celebrate with the spinner dolphin (Stenella longirostris). Why does this species spin? Scientists think it makes acrobatic leaps for a range of reasons: to rid itself of clinging parasites, to signal something, to enhance a courtship displayโฆor just for fun! You can spot this dolphin in tropical regions around the world, including waters near Thailand, Hawaii, and Central America. It lives in pods that can range up to as many as a thousand individuals.

Burrata Caprese Pizza
Whether itโs for the Super Bowl or Valentineโs Day, this Neapolitan-style Caprese pizza is a solid choice. Topped with fresh basil pesto, creamy burrata, and slow-roasted cherry tomato confit, then finished with a drizzle of hot honey for that perfect balance of flavors.
