ATTENTION: I made a mistake in the Haast's eagle section. It displays the wrong scientific name as the scientific name shown is for the Smoky jungle frog.
I use it as template name for the lower third title, please ignore :)

Thanks for including the Moa and Haast eagle, they were truly magnificent creatures. I wish they were still alive today.

[christerprestberg]

The fact that the Moa made it so "close" to our time makes it all the more sad that it is gone

[bonesawmcgraw]

It’s a shame that these birds went extinct due to humans. We might be able to see passenger pigeons and dodos again hopefully.

10:07 I can't remember what company it was but apparently they will have Passenger Pigeon eggs ready to hatch by 2025. The company was either Collasal or Revive and Restore.

Fun Fact: the Phorusrhachids (the Terror Birds) actually went extinct more around 18, 000 years ago, ending with Psilopterus, a much smaller terror bird.

Best de-extinction candidates in certain regions vid?

[javeionsharpe]

I actually didnt even know about the europe bird

[devinrivers]

Wow, there passenger pigeons that lived in South Carolina, my home state

[TheHamahakki]

Hey. I love your videos. I have idea, I hope it is not too boring, but can you make video for species that are not in danger, maybe get some benefit from human behavior. (Rat, fox, pigeon....)

[sailakshmi]

Can you tell about extinct parrots in a future video
Also about the 13 hypothetical macaws of the Carribean

[dodoxasaurus]

You should take about all the extinct animals from Saint Helena, the only surviving endemic bird left is the Saint Helena Plover.

[EmmaWard-yznx]

do you think you will do videos on not only animals but plants as well. because plants are equally as interesting as animals?

[FakeLucio]

Birds are the most fascinating animal. No explanation cuz I can't b bothered.

[WeevilWoodpecker]

As soon as you said seabird I knew it was going to be great auk lol

[johntodd]

New video idea
extinct mammals that actually don’t have any close relatives
Hyaenodon
Unitatherium
Toxodon
Lepticidium

Ranking smallest to largest elephant subspecies

Ranking the largest animal migrations on earth

[guerreiro]

I was expecting the elephant bird for Africa but I guess the Dodo makes for a more interesting video given the de-extinction attempts and all. Anyways, one great video once again.
