(#7) Passenger Pigeon
- Ectopistes migratorius
"Audubon reported that when the flock flew overhead, it blocked the sun for three days. Terrible for crops, and they were tasty. Humans set out to kill them all, and did. One technique: they would sew the eyelids of one bird shut and put it on a stool. Blinded, they would sing for help. Others would come and be met with shotguns. Hence the nickname 'stool pigeon.'"

- Bos primigenius
"It died out in the 1600s. They were wild cows that stood six-feet tall at the shoulder. We're already trying to breed them back into existence because they provided a valuable ecological service in the areas they occupied. So, I'd bring the real thing back."
