😔😣😢😭😫 R I P 💔🥀 Kauk’i o o rust in peace. My son would like to say when he first time watched this animation he started to shed tears and imagine how would blue from Rio would felt if his own kind of species is having the situation in blue is definitely the last bird of his kind before dying and then scientist will try to find a way to bring these species back. That’s what I like to say during my speech. I’m sorry don’t leave me. I need you and I’m sorry your love is gone and I could tell you felt just like Manny from Ice Age when he believed himself that he is the last mammoth of his kind before he finally met Ali, but that never happened to you little fellow. I’m very sorry but don’t worry. Beware we’re going to promise that the biological scientist are going to find a way to bring you back from extinction with your leftover blood DNA and I could see you see some red Cardinals a.k.a. Reds ancestors who managed to see you for the last time wavy before when you no longer exist and also red is having a baby in Angry Birds movie three and it’s sad to see you never would have a mate that is what my son would like to say for his speech and after when you were brought back from extinction successfully we would make sure to wipe mosquitoes out of extinction and rats out of extinction and make sure to keep our pet cats away from catching you and your babies and eggs because rats also caused not only your species to go extinct. It’s also the dodo birds and they’re getting brought back first before you do just to let you know your mating call is this most upsetting but most beautiful and breathtaking and tears shedding breathtaking song my son would like to see ever heard and we humans will see you if we managed to bring one of your ancestors back and then make sure that a male and a female partner breaths and make sure to reproduce more and more and more never stop until your species are back to normal. Good luck with that and hopefully you soon come back that this is my speech coming to an end.😣😢😫😭💔🕊️😈😼🦟🕎♥️⚰️🪦🕯️🕊️😔🥀
😭
I'm not crying it's just humid 😥
😭😭😭😭😭
Would cloning bring them back? Yes, but only in part. We've shown we can turn the tables on extinction, but what we show far more often is an 'oh someone else will do it' attitude.
Heartbreaking.😢
it was so heartbreaking😢😢😢😢
Extinct animals- welcome
Those extinct species don't deserve to be extinct 😢😢😢😢. My older brother really love these species
How many species did we drive to extinction? How many might follow? We don't deserve this world.
Good video 😢
So sad 😭🥺🥺
This bird journey have destroyed humans 😢😢😢😢😭😭😭
❤
How can a powerful species (humans) can be considered kind, when this legend fell?
悲傷,森林被毀滅,鳥類,動物受害,慈悲救助
1980s mens was most dangerous for birds life😢😢😢😢
The last time they saw an O'o bird on Kauai was in 1987 when they recorded the last male of the species on camera; it was a very lonely and sad song.

“The saddest sound in the universe is not silence. It is a voice still calling after everyone who could answer is gone.”
Its all our fault we kept on destroying nature
I hope the scientists will bring the species back
ending: the sad ending 😢
Great animation!… this is fucking sad…
😢😢😢
We have to admire humankind for bringing about the end of a bird species, bravo!
A person who can watch this without any signs of emotion is not a person
