Day 2025/15000* 6.5" Height.* Small chip on flower, rest in very good condition.* Please see photos for description.* Extinct c. 1886. The Mauritius Blue Pigeon is a now extinct species of blue pigeon formerly native to the Mascarene Island of Mauritius, east of Madagascar in the Indian Ocean. The Mauritius had colors similar to those of the Dutch flag, and so inevitably the French naturalist and explorer Pierre Sonnerat called it the Pigeon Hollandaise. He was the first to bring the bird to the attention of ornithologists in 1782. Much of the Mascarenes’ native fauna have become endangered or extinct since the human settlement of the islands in the 17th century, the most famous of which was the extinct flightless pigeon, the Dodo of Mauritius, poster child for extinction. Settlers cleared most of the forests for agriculture and grazing, and introduced many exotic species, including pigs, rats, cats, monkeys, and mongooses. A combination of habitat destructions, hunting, and predation drove the Mauritius Blue Pigeon extinct in the 1830’s. Thank you for looking and please let me know if you have any questions about the Limited Edition #2025 of 15000 Vintage London Ed. D. Day Pigeon Hollandaise Porcelain Bird Figurine.
