An interdisciplinary panel discussion exploring the life and legacy of the dodo
Why does the dodo continue to haunt our imagination? Why is it the poster bird for extinction? How has it been represented across time and culture? An interdisciplinary panel explored the life and legacy of the dodo at an event in collaboration between TORCH and the Museum of Natural History. The event was part of Being Human 2015, the UK's national festival of the humanities.
