Of course, one of the most well known is the Dodo. The following are not as well known but they became extinct due to man's lack of foresight. The Sea Cow, the largest marine mammal belonging to the order Sirenia. The Saddle-Backed Giant Tortoises from the Island of Rodrigue's. The Last Wild Quagga (similar to a Zebra) was killed by a hunter in the late 1870's. The Tasmanian Wolf (or Tasmanian Tiger) died in captivity in 1936. During the Nineteenth century, the Cape Lion (1858), Falkland Island Wolf (1876), and the Sea Mink (1894). During the Twentieth Century, the Barbary Lion (1922), Bali Tiger (1937), Queen of Sheba's gazelle (1951), Japanese Sea Lion (1951), Caribbean Monk Seal (1952), Javan Tiger (1976).
