The passenger pigeon was wiped out due to overhunting. Once the most abundant bird on earth, numbering in the billions, it could only nest in large flocks, when the flocks were diminishing, the mating ritual was inhibited, and they were driven to extinction. The last one, a female named "Martha", died in the Cinncinatti Zoo in 1914.
