Here is a skit from a 2006 post on this forum. It might generate some idea for your dodo. I wrote it based on a really old joke.
Y: Boys and girls, today I want you to meet a very special bird.
V: I'm special! I'm special!
Y: There is no other bird in the world like her.
V: I'm special! I'm special!
Y: If anything happened to this bird, then her kind would be extinct!
V: Wha-a-a-t? I don't stink!
Y: I didn't say that you stink. I said that you're EXtinct!
V: My eggs don't stink!
Y: You are a dodo.
V: And you are a ding dong!
Y: I'm telling them what kind of bird you are!
V: I'm special! I'm special!
Y: (to audience) She is endangered.
V: Wha-a-a-t? Why am I in danger? Are these kids mean?
Y: No. These kids are very nice!
V: They're special. They're special.
Y: When an animal is endangered that means that there are very few of them left and we need to protect them.
V: Good!
Y: In your case, you are the last one. And we don't want you to be extinct!
V: I don't stink! And you're ugly!
Y: Whoa! That wasn't nice. Now you and I are good friends.
V: Yes, we are.
Y: I think you should say that you're sorry!
V: Okay. I'm sorry that we're good friends!
Y: I think you should say you're sorry for the ugly thing!
V: Oh. I'm sorry you're an ugly thing!
Y: Boys and girls, sometimes we misunderstand our friends and we get our feelings hurt. Verna is my friend. When I said that she's extinct I really mean that she's very special.
V: I'm special! I'm special!
Y: There's no one else like her. She's one of a kind!
V: In that case, I think you're special, too!
Y: Thank you.
V: There's no one else like you!
Y: Thank you.
V: You stink too!
Y: I think I had better go and have a talk with her.
