Extinct animals



Extinct animals: an educational experience for adults and children
Here you will discover 12 extinct species such as the iconic Dodo, as well as the Black Rhinoceros, which became extinct in 2011, and the Gastric-brooding Frog, which disappeared in 1983. A world map showing where these species once lived highlights that the entire planet is affected by species extinction and the loss of biodiversity.
These animals are repainted every year by Laëtitia Duchêne, the artist for La Balade du Père Nicolas.
