The Aphanapteryx is a highly close relative of the Dodo bird. Not only because it comes from the same family but it also; only existed on Mauritius Island, was a flightless bird, and is now extinct!

The birds related to the dodo are pigeons and doves. Even though the dodo is extinct, scientists were able to make this determination through DNA testing. The dodo bird became extinct some time between 1662 and 1700.
