About These Birds
Enggano Cuckoo-Dove
Slender cuckoo-dove, 32–35 cm, uniform warm cinnamon-rufous with minimal barring and a relatively short tail. Restricted to Enggano Island off the southwestern coast of Sumatra. Inhabits dense lowland forest. Frugivore. Vulnerable due to extremely small range and ongoing forest loss on the island.
Rodrigues Solitaire
Extinct flightless pigeon of Rodrigues Island, 70–90 cm and up to 28 kg. Sexually dimorphic; males bore bony wing knobs used in combat. Fed on fruits and seeds on the forest floor. Extinct by ~1730–1760 CE following human settlement and introduced pigs, rats, and cats. Closely related to the Dodo and Nicobar Pigeon.
