disapproval If you refer to someone as a dodo, you think they are foolish or silly. Extinct flightless bird (Raphus cucullatus) of Mauritius, first seen by Portuguese sailors about 1507.

(23-cm) blackish bill with a reddish hooked tip, small useless wings, stout yellow legs, and a tuft of curly feathers high on its rear end. The Réunion solitaire (R. solitarius), also driven to extinction, may have been a white version of the dodo. Partial museum specimens and skeletons are all that remain of the dodo
