1
Every picture you've ever seen of a dodo is probably wrong.
2
The chubby, goofy cartoon bird from textbooks, memes, and Alice in Wonderland?
3
Yeah.
4
That dodo never really existed.
5
The real bird likely looked very different.
6
So where do you find the real image of the dodo?
7
you look toward the artist who actually saw them.
8
We're decoding the art of the dodo, because scientists working to bring the dodo back don't just need bones and DNA.
9
They also need clues from the people who lived alongside these birds.
10
Clues about what the animal may have truly looked like.
11
So we sat down with an art historian helping scientists reconstruct an extinct species through centuries -old paintings.
12
We're tracing the real Dodo through the eyes of the artists who painted it, to uncover what the bird actually looked like, how the wrong version took over the world,
13
and how nearly forgotten paintings are now helping scientists rebuild it.
14
And we'll answer the question: Could we be looking at one again in our lifetime?
15
This is Marine Saussier, an art historian and graduate of the Ecole de Louvre in Paris.
16
She wasn't supposed to end up working with de -extinction scientists, She was studying Dutch Golden Age paintings, Then her brother made a joke about the dodo
17
and accidentally sent her down a rabbit hole that would eventually connect her with the team trying to bring the bird back.
18
My name is Marine, Marine Soucier.
19
I specialized in history of European painting and Dutch painting in particular.
20
I got very passionate about research while writing my thesis about the dodo,
21
and so I decided to pursue it by doing a PhD in art and cultural history.
22
I'm half French, half Mauritian.
23
When you are in Mauritius, dodos are everywhere, on the coins, in the market, a lot of souvenirs of the dodo.
24
I've been fortunate enough to grow up in Paris, which allowed me to be very close to great monuments and museums that always fascinated me.
25
My dad used to bring me to the Louvre with him every week, and that's how I became familiar with art, I guess.
26
This is the most famous dodo painting in the world painted by Dutch artist Roulant Savary in the 1620s.
27
It's the reason we all picture the dodo as a chunky, awkward little gremlin.
28
Savary worked in the court of Holy Roman Emperor Rudolf II, whose massive collections in Prague included exotic animals,
29
preserved specimens, and sprawling cabinets of curiosities from across the known world.
30
There's just one problem: the dodo savarie painted may not have looked much like a real dodo at all.
31
Roland Savory is really the most important painter He is also sometimes named the Dodo's painter.
32
Some researches have been made about the to understand why they were chubby and obese in a way, in the representations of Roland Savory.
33
The answer is certainly it's because they were stuffed
34
when they were both in Europe What he painted was likely based on a very overstuffed specimen.
35
But that one image became the dodo.
36
Savary painted it again and again.
37
His nephew, Jan Savary, copied it.
38
Then other artists copied them, and suddenly this strange swollen bird started spreading across Europe like a 400 -year -old meme.
39
In the 19th century, for example, Lewis Carroll, the famous author of Alice in Wonderland,
40
got inspired by the specimen of the dudette that was kept at Oxford
41
and used it to create the character of the dodo in his novel.
42
It appears that the real names of Lewis Carroll was
43
Charles Doxon and so it turns the dodo in a kind of self -portrait of himself in the novel.
44
It makes no doubt that the illustrator John Tenniel got inspired by the Roland Savory painting to represent the dodo And actually,
45
the printed version of Alice in Wonderland quickly spread all around the world
46
And that's actually one of the episodes that led to the current fame of the dodo as an icon of extinction.
47
And it has been possible thanks to painting, basically.
48
Disney, Ice Age, Madagascar, memes, GIFs, tattoos.
49
Almost all of it traces back to one probably wrong painting.
50
of miles apart and never knowing each other existed, we're doing something very different.
51
They were painting the bird as it actually looked.
52
The two depictions I think are the most accurate to Dodo's anatomy,
53
were made in very different contexts but similar backgrounds.
54
The first one was made by Jacob Fufnaröl at the court of Prague, where a Dodo was kept at the menagerie of Rudolf II.
55
sort.
56
But here's the question: the dodo lived on a single island in the Indian Ocean.
57
So how did one end up in a palace in Prague, and another in the Mughal courts of India?
58
The answer is the Dutch East India Company.
59
These guys were flinging dodos around as diplomatic gifts Because in 17th century Europe, owning a rare animal wasn't just a curiosity.
60
It was status.
61
a flex, Proof that your empire reached places other empires just couldn't.
62
And inside these royal courts, artists weren't being paid to invent fantasy creatures or paint vibes.
63
They were being paid to document the collections as accurately as possible.
64
Although they are considered scientifically accurate,
65
I think we can still rely on art history and on the artist's motivation to understand this accuracy furthermore.
66
the fact that they were both made in real context and that they were represented in bestiaries.
67
is a good indicator.
68
The motivation and mission of those two artists was above all to document the collections of naturalia of their own monarch.
69
and in order to do
70
so they were very precise both in the rendering of the proportions but also in the anatomy
71
and in the use of the right colors And no one pushed that documentary precision further than Ustad Mansour.
72
He was one of the greatest Mughal miniaturists of his generation.
73
In his world, master painters used brushes made from a single squirrel hair all to capture the smallest possible details with extreme precision.
74
The dodos that were represented in Europe at that time, in earthly paradises, so it was more of a fantastical representation,
75
whereas Ustad Mansour is really focused on the documental purpose of the representation.
76
400 years later, in a lab on the other side of the world, scientists are trying to bring the dodo back.
77
bones, tissue, ancient DNA, genome sequencing, the full Jurassic Park toolkit.
78
But when you're trying to connect genes to visible traits, it still matters what the animal actually looked like.
79
Written descriptions help.
80
but paintings that accurately capture the bird their gold.
81
So Maureen got on a call with Colossal's avian team.
82
She brought the Hofnagel painting, she brought the Mansour, and suddenly, the art historian and the genome scientists were studying the same images,
83
for completely different reasons.
84
The thing is that we are working on the same images but for different purposes.
85
They were actually really, I think, surprised and glad when I showed them the two most accurate depictions in my opinion.
86
and they had some questions about those two pictures For example, they were wondering if these dodos are male or female.
87
Some dodos are represented with a tail and others aren't.
88
so maybe it can be a track to distinguish.
89
They were also really interested about all the questions about the colors of the feathers, for example.
90
The feathers are not always representing the same colors, sometimes they are a bit grayish, sometimes a bit more brownish,
91
and in the two depictions they have the same the same colors.
92
Then came one of the strongest reality checks yet.
93
Scientists compared surviving dodo bones preserved in a museum in Denmark against the proportions in the Hofnagel painting,
94
and the measurements lined up.
95
And now the road back to the real Dodo runs through a Mughal miniature a Habsburg cabinet of curiosities,
96
and a genetics lab in Texas, which honestly feels fitting
97
because the true story of the dodo has always been stranger than the cartoon version we inherited.
98
When I contacted Colossal, I thought they would never answer to me
99
because they were like a French student working on dodo's and art history because they are scientists.
100
Like I was completely wrong and it was just really, really interesting and motivated too have that discussions with the team
101
and with you today so you have to be audacious to to get what you want.
102
Here's the thing about the dodo.
103
It isn't just a bird, it's the bird, the mascot of extinction.
104
The dodo became famous as a joke, a cartoon, a punchline.
105
But for 400 years, the real bird has been hiding inside that joke, in old oil paintings, in bones, in fragments of DNA.
106
And now the mystery is slowly being solved, Because one day soon, we may not just remember the dodo,
107
we may actually meet it.
108
again.

Gölgeleme Tekniği Nedir?
Gölgeleme, başlangıçta profesyonel tercüman eğitimi için geliştirilen ve çok dilli Dr. Alexander Arguelles tarafından popüler hale getirilen, bilim destekli bir dil öğrenme tekniğidir. Yöntem basit ama güçlüdür: ana dili İngilizce olan bir sesi dinler ve hemen yüksek sesle tekrar edersiniz — konuşmacıyı 1-2 saniye gecikmeyle takip eden bir gölge gibi. Pasif dinleme veya dilbilgisi alıştırmalarının aksine, gölgeleme beyninizi ve ağız kaslarınızı gerçek konuşma kalıplarını eşzamanlı olarak işlemeye ve yeniden üretmeye zorlar. Araştırmalar, telaffuz doğruluğu, tonlama, ritim, bağlı konuşma, dinleme anlama ve konuşma akıcılığını önemli ölçüde geliştirdiğini göstermektedir — bu da onu IELTS Konuşma hazırlığı ve gerçek dünya İngilizce iletişimi için en etkili yöntemlerden biri yapar.
