Tuesday Night Trivia, on Thursday

I haven't done this in a couple months, but I think this is a good one:

Name the current-day island nation that once was home to the now-extinct elephant bird AND name the current-day island nation that once was home to the now-extinct dodo. Both islands are in the same ocean and their names both begin with the same two letters.

Well, I'm making a guess here. I seem to recall the dodo being from the vicinity of the Indian Ocean. That leaves me with the M's, I think.

So, I'll say: Madagascar and the Maldives.

(Could be Mauritius)

I'm going to go look it up now.

You got it with the parentheses. Madagascar (elephant bird) and Mauritius (dodo) is the correct answer.
