Correct option is B
The dodo, a flightless bird native to the island of Mauritius, became extinct in the late 17th century. The primary reason for its extinction was the invasion of non-native species, such as rats, pigs, and monkeys, brought to the island by sailors. These animals preyed on dodo eggs and competed for food resources. Additionally, human activities such as hunting contributed to the rapid decline of the dodo population, but the introduction of invasive species played the most significant role in their extinction.
Therefore, the correct answer is option (b) Invasion of non-native species.
