The passenger pigeon (Ectopistes migratorius) started to become extinct in the mid 1800s and the last surviving specimen died in 1914. The very last one was a female named Martha who died at Cincinnati Zoo at about 1:00 pm on September 1, 1914. There is a wonderful exhibit at the Zoo honoring Martha.
Other less-known species that may have become extinct during the decade include:
- Kioea (Chaetoptila angustipluma) of Hawaii
- Virgin Islands Screech owl (Megascops nudipes newtoni)
- Finsch's Duck (Chenonetta finschi) from New Zealand
