11 Dodos are passive flightless birds in Windrose's Coastal Jungle biome, especially common on beaches. They do not attack the player and flee when approached. Dodos drop Bird Meat and Dodo Eggs, both essential cooking ingredients for early-game stat foods. Hunting Dodos is one of the safest early-game ways to stockpile food materials before tackling more dangerous wildlife like Boars.

1313 Coastal Jungle beaches (most common; the starting island has multiple spawn points)Open clearings within Coastal Jungle islandsSometimes near abandoned camps or ruins, where they nest among the rubble

1515 Dodos appear to be concentrated in the Coastal Jungle biome; their presence in the Foothills or Cursed Swamps has not been publicly confirmed. They are an early-game resource that becomes less relevant once the player advances to higher-tier biomes with their own bird-equivalent enemies.

1919 Approach slowly; if a Dodo runs, you may need to chase it brieflyUse a bow or pistol for ranged kills; a single shot is usually enoughLook for Dodo Egg nests in the same area; eggs can be picked up directly without combatStockpile Bird Meat and Dodo Eggs in chests at your base; they are key ingredients for the most powerful early-game cooking buffs

2323 The historical Dodo (Raphus cucullatus) was a flightless bird native to Mauritius in the Indian Ocean, not the Caribbean. It went extinct around 1681 due to hunting and introduced predators. Windrose's alternate-history Caribbean repurposes the Dodo as a Caribbean species, both for its iconic recognizability and for the pirate-era "easy hunt" connotation. The choice positions the Coastal Jungle biome as a place where unspoiled wildlife still thrives, untouched by the supernatural corruption spreading from elsewhere.
