american history, including games played by the u.s. men. >> we're america's dream team. and we've been at the forefront. we've been at the top. and i think the number in women's sports history. >> how has u.s. soccer federation helped you guys make it to where you are? >> when you compare this federation to all the other federations across the globe they have invested the most money in this women's program. they have. and that's why we've gotten as far as we have. but to be paid equally, you know, it's not about what they think is fair. it's what is fair. >> reporter: after their 2015

honored with a parade down new york city's canyon of heroes. but behind the ticker tape their relationship with u.s. soccer was breaking down over a new contract. outspoken goalkeeper hope solo was on the team for 19 years. >> time and time again we asked that we wanted to be paid equally to the men, and i'll never -- >> you've been asking for that for many years? >> yeah, we have. we have. every time we brought up the men it pissed them of them, and they'd say don't bring up the men, don't bring it up. >> reporter: globally, men's soccer is undeniably more popular and profitable than the women's game. when germany won the world cup in 2014, fifa, the sport's international governing body, awarded them $35 million. a year later, when the u.s. women won the cup, the u.s. soccer federation received $2 million. men also make major league

club teams. women's pro clubs have struggled financially. so the women say they rely on their national team income to pay their bills, unlike the men. how are they paid differently? >> there's two different pay structures. the men get paid per game. whether they win or lose, they get paid. the women are on a salary-based contract. >> reporter: it's a pay structure the women themselves wanted and agreed to in 2005 and again in 2013. a consistent salary of up to $72,000 a year and bonuses for wins of $1,350. they also get health insurance and maternity leave. the men enjoy no guaranteed salary and fewer personal benefits. but they can make as much as $17,625 for a win. we wanted to compare two of the top players.

solo was paid about $366,000 in total by u.s. soccer. in 2014, also a world cup year for the men, team usa goalkeeper tim howard was paid $398,495. she played in 23 games for the u.s. he played in 8. >> when you break it down per game, i think it's about three times as much. >> reporter: two solo convinced the team to hire lawyer rich nichols to try to get them a better contract. >> i said look, you are in control, this is your business. you have to take control of it. and you can be in control of it. but you have to be unified. you've got to get a new deal. >> what kind of deal would the women accept? >> equal. equal pay. >> but what does equal mean? you want the same agreement the men have? >> we want the same money that the men are making.

that's that $8,000 bonus if you tie a game and the 17,625 if you win. we want equal money. >> we have to win and perform to even make 1,350. >> you're professional women. you signed this deal. do you look back and say why did i agree to that deal? >> a little bit. but it's also when it comes down to it, we just kind of had to be like oh, you're just going to say no to everything we're putting on the table. we didn'no in which ways we could fight. >> do you think you should be paid more than the men's team? >> yeah, absolutely. >> why? >> we win. we're successful. we should get what we deserve. >> reporter: last year the top female players did make more money from u.s. soccer than the men's team. but their lawyer, rich nichols, says that's only because they played and won more games than the men. >> when you subtract the bonus

2015, they're probably making $70,000 to $80,000 apiece. >> you mean had they not been winning they would not have made anywhere close to what the men made. >> that's right. >> reporter: despite being upset at last summer's olympics, the women are still number one in the world according to fifa. they say their fight is only with u.s. soccer, not with the u.s. men's team, who are ranked a respectable if unspectacular 24th in the world. >> this team taught all america's children that playing like a girl means you're a bad-ass. >> reporter: on stage at the white house in october 2015, they were national heroes celebrating their latest world cup win. back on the job, they were disgruntled workers whose negotiations with u.s. soccer had ground to a halt and grown increasingly bitter. the women decided to change tactics. enter the federal agency known

employment opportunity commission. why file this suit with the eeoc? >> we wanted to put pressure on them, and so with the eeoc complaint it seemed like a no-brainer for us. >> reporter: their complaint accuses u.s. soccer of violating the equal pay act and title vii which protects employees against discrimination based on sex. the commission has the power to award damages, issue the right for workers to sue or do nothing at all. >> you can see the full report on our website, cbsnews.com. the overnight news w >> i'm alex trebek. if you're age 50 to 85, this is an important message. so please, write down the number on your screen.

a lot of thanksgiving chefs lean on family recipes that date back generations. well, there's a restaurant in new york city where the chefs prepare dishes that date back centuries. jim axelrod brought his healthy appetite to delmonico's. kitchen of delmonico's in lower manhattan. >> strip medium, fillet medium, burger medium. >> reporter: and head chef billy oliva has more than just today's lunch rush on his mind. >> it's challenging. a lot of those dishes that were invented here, lobster newburgh, chicken a la king. how do we keep people and grandchildren and great grandchildren of people that used to come here, how do we

that's my biggest challenge here. >> reporter: is to take the history -- >> and bring it forward. >> reporter: dell monaco's is the nation's first formal restaurant. so in many ways this kitchen is the birthplace of what's growing into a $780 billion industry. its influence on our nation's menus is unmistakable. eggs benedict, baked alaska. >> this is where all the steaks start and finish. >> reporter: and of course the dell their name here. >> when people say delmonico steak, that's this guy. aged, boneless -- >> delmonico steaks sold all over the country. there's only one place that carries such meaning. >> it's right here. and this is it. >> reporter: and with a history that dates back to 1837 -- >> we're going to delmonico's for supper. won't you join us? >> lunch at delmonico's.

sunday. >> reporter: delmonico's fingerprints are on more than just our menus. >> most presidents. diamond jim brady. vanderbilt. >> abraham lincoln ed here. teddy roosevelt ate here. >> that's right. >> reporter: in his new book yale historian paul friedman has come up with the ten restaurants that changed america. delmonico's may be on the cover. >> delmonico's is almost like kleenex or xerox became shorthand for restaurant. >> that's right. >> reporter: but all ten make up history. restaurants like mama leone's, which integrated ethnic food into the mainstream. and the mandarin in san francisco, which elevated it beyond chop suey. sylvia's in harlem and antoine's in new orleans. the influence of regional cuisine. how the highbrow shaped eating

chez panisse. the four seasons. and how the middlebrow did as well. schraff and is howard johnson's. ? on the road around the corner here's the place to go ? howard johnson? ? howard johnson's ? ? join the folks who know ? >> howard johnson's is the basis for not only the fast food industry like mcdonald's or burger king but the fast casual industry like chili's or denny's. >> that will be $6.18. more money on eating out than on buying food to cook at home. and even if you never step foot in the place that started it all, don't ever forget, your favorite neighborhood joint has a lot more in common than you might think with iconic restaurants like delmonico's. have you ever been somewhere else and you open up the menu and you see lobster newburgh or you see delmonico steak -- >> all the time. >> -- and you think to yourself, that's my place.

me, i was with my mom and she told the waiter.

by now your thanksgiving dinner is likely all cleaned up and the leftovers tucked away in the fridge. so the last thing you might want to think about now is a giant bird. well, in england the bones of this bird, the dodo, fetched big money at auction. the sailors hunted and ate them to extinction. is there a lesson in that for us? mark phillips reports. >> of course concern over the environment and the u.s. approach to it is one of the main mysteries of what the trump administration will do. and there has been a little of a lesson here on how influential people can be. that lesson came at an auction for, as you say, a rare bird. >> i'm going to start the bidding with me at 250,000

>> reporter: more than a collection of old bones was on the block at this auction. those bones once assembled formed the world's most famous dead bird. the dodo. >> dead as a dodo just rolls off the tongue sort of beautifully, doesn't it? >> reporter: the phrase stuck, says dodo expert aaron fuller not just because did was catchy but because the dodo the extinction is so well documented. hungry european sailors found the bird on the indian ocean 1500s. within about 80 years the hapless and significantly flightless bird was gone. dead as. the dodo has been extinct for more than 300 years. yet it is still the most important symbol of what mankind can do to nature if it isn't careful or if it doesn't care. if the dodo and its lessons live again. >> 260 i have.

but auction house owner rupert vanderverth says he was selling an idea. is this an example of man's folly? >> it really brings it home, that we can have a big impact on the environment. >> reporter: make no bones about it. >> animal and bird species are being made extinct at a faster rate than ever. and that is one way or another our fault, or mankind's fault. so whether we're actually learning the lesson, i don't think i'd like to become the next dodo. >> well, that's a possibility too. >> reporter: the bird went for -- >> 280,000 pounds. and sold for 280,000 -- >> reporter: about $416,000 with commissions. a big price for a big lesson. there are only about 20 complete dodo skeletons around. almost all of them like the one sold at the auction made up of bones from many birds.

apparently you just stick the bones anywhere. >> that's the news for this friday. for some of you the news continues. for others check back with us a little later for the morning news and "cbs this morning." from the broadcast center in new york city i'm don dahler. police under fire. officers are ambushed during routine traffic stops in several states. >> this incident shows that that can happen right in our back yard. also tonight, the long shot of lonot who's leading the battle for a recount of the presidential election? help for the homeless. a simple program is making life on the streets more bearable. >> it kind of adds a little dignity back into the equation. and a family reunion. the women and their guardian angel. >> do you have any daughters of your own? >> no.

>> announcer: this is the "cbs overnight news." it can happen in a split second. a police stop turns into an ambush. officers have been targeted several times this week. in detroit wayne state university officer collin rose was shot tuesday and died the next day. in idaho an officer was forced to react quickly when a suspect appeared suddenly. here's don dahler. >> reporter: officer tom woods was making a routine traffic stop when a man popped out of a woods wrestled him to the ground. lewiston's police chief chris ankeny says it could have ended badly. >> there have been a lot of events in the past few months that have been quite horrific and have shown a propensity of violence toward police. >> reporter: over the past week six officers were attacked in michigan, texas, missouri, florida, and idaho. this year alone, 60 officers

20 in ambushes. a 67% increase over last year. >> i've got an officer down in front of headquarters. i need ems right now. >> reporter: 18 took place in texas, where last sunday san antonio detective benjamin marconi was shot in the head. the reasons are unclear. while some were retribution for shootings of blacks by white officers, most suspects in these police shootings were white men. last july texas lawmakers proposed a law making it a hate crime to target police after five officers were murdered. officer ray hunt. >> it definitely tells people that we're not going to tolerate an individual killing somebody simply because of the uniform that they're wearing. >> reporter: last night hundreds marched through the streets of san antonio in support of their slain men in blue. ? and on monday people gathered in chilly st. louis to honor an officer shot in the head during an ambush. >> thank you for being here. >> reporter: chief sam dotson.

dangerous job. go out and do it. do it safely. do it in pairs. but know that the community has your back. >> reporter: that officer is expected to survive. elaine, according to the national law enforcement officers memorial fund, this year has seen the most targeted attacks on police in over 20 years. >> don dahler. don, thank you. just when you thought the bitter presidential election was this -- the green party candidate is raising money to request recounts in three battleground states that gave donald trump the victory over hillary clinton. anna werner is following this. >> reporter: jill stein has raised more than $4 million in just over 24 hours, all through donations to her website. >> our goal is to create a voting system that we can believe in. >> reporter: stein is questioning results in pennsylvania, where trump won by roughly 68,000 votes. wisconsin, where his margin of victory was a little over 27,000

close to call. what evidence of fraud do you have in this election? >> let me be very clear. we do not have evidence of fraud. we do not have smoking guns. what we do have is an election that was surrounded by hacking. >> reporter: she points to the hacking of the democratic national committee and the hacks into the voter registration lists in arizona and illinois, hacks linked by u.s. she says it all raises questions of fraud with electronic voting machines and demonstrates the need for a count of the actual paper ballots. voting rights attorney john bonifaz is helping to drive the recount effort. >> the american people deserve public confidence in the integrity of our process, and if we don't ever look at the ballots and we don't ever verify the vote, why should we expect that public trust?

fair and square, you need to let it go and get over it? >> first of all, i'm engaged in this process as a small d democrat. i believe in the democratic process. and i believe we ought to verify the vote regardless of who the winner was declared on election night. it may turn out that it doesn't change the outcome of the election, but it's a healthy process for us to engage in as a democracy. >> reporter: so what about hillary clinton? no comment from her camp. bonifaz says he appred with no decision made he approached stein instead. the only comment from president-elect donald trump's team, elaine, was a tweet from adviser kellyanne conway saying, "look who can't accept the election results," referring to clinton supporters. >> anna werner. anna, thank you. as the holiday rush got under way, highway safety regulators announce new guidelines to make smartphones less distracting. that includes locking drivers

here's kris van cleave. >> reporter: cell phone video shows this car accelerating, first to 83 miles per hour. the speed recorded by a smartphone messaging app known as snapchat. the car eventually hit more than 115. both people inside died when the driver lost control and struck a minivan, killing a mother, two of her children, and injuring three other people. it happened just nine minutes after the snapchat video was posted. the accident comes ami part to distracted driving. one of the worst culprits is using cell phones behind the wheel. deborah hersman is the former head of the ntsb. >> we put up with, in a permissive way, people talking on the phone, people texting, even though 46 states have laws banning texting. >> reporter: in the first half of 2016 well more than 17,000 people died in accidents. that's up 10.4% over last year. aaa expects 43.5 million americans to drive 50 miles or more this thanksgiving weekend, and the national safety council grimly predicts 437 will die in crashes.

we're repealing helmet laws. we make decisions here in this country that actually allow more fatalities to occur, and then we question why the number is rising. >> we have an immediate crisis on our hands. >> reporter: national highway traffic safety administrator mark rosekind. >> we've known distraction is a problem all the time. people are just sneaky, you know, where they're just putting things below visual and still on their phone. so these are problems that we know about that are clearly underestimated that are probably playing a big part in those increases. we just can't measure how much. >> reporter: drunk driving and not wearing a seat belt still remain major issues. elaine, nhtsa and the national safety council have formed a coalition aimed at getting to zero traffic deaths in our lifetime. to start that, $3 million in seed money aimed at developing technologies and strategies to make the roads safer. >> kris van cleave. kris, thank you. the "cbs overnight news"

hampton says the surprise tax was designed to make up for lost tax revenue from people getting rid of cable tv and home phones. >> i read it multiple times and i was just like, well, when did this happen? >> reporter: it happened when pasadena voters modernized a law in 2008 to tax cell phones like land lines, never anticipating it could be applied to video streaming. 41 california cities now have similar laws. >> folks are going to wake up and see tax line items on their they're not going to be happy. >> reporter: internet association director robert callahan believes cities could be violating federal law because the government doesn't allow tax on the internet. >> utilities are electricity and water and sewer and all sorts of other types of actual utilities. websites and apps don't fit that mold whatsoever. >> reporter: that hasn't stopped cash-strapped cities across the country. chicago is currently being sued for charging a 9% tax on video streaming.

6% tax on everything from apps to downloads to help close a $1.3 billion budget gap. and now in the face of stiff opposition pasadena has put its new tax plan on hold. >> and where do we stop? is it hulu? is it netflix? is it pandora? every time you stream music in your car? i mean, where do we actually stop? >> reporter: cities in california still haven't started collecting the controversial and unpopular tax. they'll likely end up in court. >> carter evans. carter, thanks. a wave of wildfires is sweeping across israel. some may have been set. smoke has sickened dozens this week. tens of thousands have been forced from their homes. france, russia, and turkey are sending firefighters and equipment. an american service member was killed today by a roadside bomb in northern syria. no details were available, and the service member was not identified.

ucla, and northeastern. some even won scholarships. yolanda wilson and allison jenkins were on his 1988 championship team. >> we built a family while we were here. ash did so much for us. >> reporter: these days those roles have reversed. >> how are you? >> i'm here. >> reporter: a team of angels now watches over him. in their 40s and 50s, they drive him to doctor's appointments. >> you started eating already, huh? >> reporter: take him out to dinner. >> do you have any daughters of your own? >> no. those are my kids. oh. >> reporter: coach ascher may have never been a father. >> we love you, ash! >> reporter: but it didn't stop him from acting like one. michelle miller, cbs news, new york. that's the overnight news for this friday. for some of you the news continues.

state, and mr. trump's former rival dr. ben carson hinted he will head the department of housing and urban development. mr. trump is not expected to make any announcements today. donald trump was elected in part by promising to stop the flow of american jobs to china. turns out that can be a two-way street, as jim axelrod found. >> reporter: the factory floor is bustling again at this manufacturing plant in loraine, ohio. a billionaire has indeed brought jobs back to this partth rust belt. >> we'll stop the jobs from leaving ohio and from leaving america. >> reporter: no, not that billionaire. this one. mr. chow, how many jobs do you expect to create in ohio? >> translator: 3,000. >> not hundreds.

the u.s. women's soccer team is ranked number one in the world. they've won three world cups and four olympic gold medals. on the other hand, the u.s. men's team is ranked 24th with very litto efforts. so why do the men get paid so much more? norah o'donnell has that story for "60 minutes." >> we feel like we're treated like second-class citizens because they don't care as much about us as they do the men. >> what a goal from lloyd! >> reporter: carli lloyd is considered the best female soccer player in the world and captains the u.s. team. we recently spoke to her, co-captain becky sauerbrunn, and

and morgan brian. there's a long history of athletes battling their employers for more pay. it happens in the nba. it happens in the nfl. what's different about this fight? >> this is a social movement, i think. this is about gender discrimination. and i don't think that positive change occurs in the world unless it has to. >> how does this fight rank in some of the competitions you've been in? >> it's the fight. in some major -- some major battles on the field, but this is -- this could be the fight that we are a part of. >> reporter: the team is made up of the best female soccer players from around the country. and for 25 years they've ruled the world. in 1999 when brandi chastain scored to beat china in the finals of the world cup her celebration announced the

for the 2015 finals an estimated 30 million people watched on tv in the u.s. >> goal! >> reporter: as carli lloyd's three goals sealed a huge win against japan. it was and remains the highest-rated soccer match in american history, including games played by the u.s. men. >> we're america's dream team. and we've been at the forefront. we've been at the top. and i think the number one team in women's sports history. >> how has u.s. soccer federation helped you guys make it to where you are? >> when you compare this federation to all the other federations across the globe they have invested the most money in this women's program. they have. and that's why we've gotten as far as we have. but to be paid equally, you know, it's not about what they think is fair. it's what is fair. >> reporter: after their 2015

honored with a parade down new york city's canyon of heroes. but behind the ticker tape their relationship with u.s. socer was breaking down over a new contract. outspoken goalkeeper hope solo was on the team for 19 years. >> time and time again we asked that we wanted to be paid equally to the men, and i'll never -- >> you've been asking for that for many years? >> yeah, we have. we have. every time we brought up the men it pissed them off, it annoyed them, and they'd say don't bring up the men, don't bring it up. >> reporter: globally, men's soccer is undeniably more popular and profitable than the women's game. when germany won the world cup in 2014, fifa, the sport's international governing body, awarded them $35 million. a year later, when the u.s. women won the cup, the u.s. soccer federation received $2 million. men also make major league salaries playing for brand name

women's pro clubs have struggled financially. so the women say they rely on their national team income to pay their bills, unlike the men. how are they paid differently? >> there's two different pay structures. the men get paid per game. whether they win or lose, they get paid. the women are on a salary-based contract. >> reporter: it's a pay structure the women themselves wanted and agreed to in 2005 and again in 2013. a consistent salary of up to $72,000 a year and bonuses for wins of $1,350. they also get health insurance and maternity leave. the men enjoy no guaranteed salary and fewer personal benefits. but they can make as much as $17,625 for a win. we wanted to compare two of the

solo was paid about $366,000 in total by u.s. soccer. in 2014, also a world cup year for the men, team usa goalkeeper tim howard was paid $398,495. she played in 23 games for the u.s. >> when you break it down per game, i think it's about three times as much. >> reporter: two years ago hope solo convinced theea lawyer rich nichols to try to get them a better contract. >> i said look, you are in control, this is your business. you have to take control of it. and you can be in control of it. but you have to be unified. you've got to get a new deal. >> what kind of deal would the women accept? >> equal. equal pay. >> but what does equal mean? you want the same agreement the men have? >> we want the same money that the men are making. exactly.

that's that $8,000 bonus if you tie a game and the 17,625 if you win. we want equal money. >> we have to win and perform to even make 1,350. >> you're professional women. you signed this deal. do you look back and say why did i agree to that deal? or -- >> a little bit. but it's also when it comes down to it, we just kind of had to be like oh, you're just going to say no to everything we're putting on the table. we didn't know how to fight and in which ways we could fight. >> do you think you should be paid more than the men's team? >> yeah, absolutely. >> why? >> we win. we're successful. we should get what we deserve. >> reporter: last year the top female players did make more money from u.s. soccer than the men's team. but their lawyer, rich nichols, says that's only because they played and won more games than the men. >> when you subtract the bonus

2015, they're probably making $70,000 to $80,000 apiece. >> you mean had they not been winning they would not have made anywhere close to what the men made. >> that's right. >> reporter: despite being upset at last summer's olympics, the women are still number one in the world according to fifa. they say their fight is only with u.s. soccer, not with the u.s. men's team, who are ranked a respectable if unspectacular 24th in the world. >> this team taught all america's children that playing like a girl means you're a bad-ass. >> reporter: on stage at the white house in october 2015, they were national heroes celebrating their latest world cup win. back on the job, they were disgruntled workers whose negotiations with u.s. soccer had ground to a halt and grown increasingly bitter. the women decided to change tactics.

employment opportunity commission. why file this suit with the eeoc? >> we wanted to put pressure on them, and so with the eeoc complaint it seemed like a no-brainer for us. >> reporter: their complaint accuses u.s. soccer of violating the equal pay act and title vii which protects employees against discrimination based on sex. the commission has the power to award damages, issue the right for workers to sue or do nothing at all. >> you can see the full report on our website, cbsnews.com. the overnight news will be right

a lot of thanksgiving chefs lean on family recipes that date back generations. well, there's a restaurant in new york city where the chefs prepare dishes that date back centuries. jim axelrod brought his healthy appetite to delmonico's. >> reporter: it's noon in the kitchen of delmonico's in lower manhattan. >> strip medium, fillet medium, burger medium. >> reporter: and head chef billy oliva has more than just today's lunch rush on his mind. >> it's challenging. a lot of those dishes that were invented here, lobster newburgh, chicken a la king. how do we keep people and grandchildren and great grandchildren of people that used to come here, how do we keep them interested in those dishes?

here. >> reporter: is to take the history -- >> and bring it forward. >> reporter: delmonico's is the nation's first formal restaurant. so in many ways this kitchen is the birthplace of what's grown into a $780 billion industry. its influence on our nation's menus is unmistakable. eggs benedict, baked alaska. >> this is where all the steaks start and finish. >> reporter: and of course the delmonico's steak all made their name here. >> when people say delmonico steak, that's this guy. wet aged, boneless -- >> delmonico steaks sold all over the country. there's only one place that carries such meaning. >> it's right here. and this is it. >> reporter: and with a history that dates back to 1837 -- >> we're going to delmonico's for supper. won't you join us? >> lunch at delmonico's. >> join me at delmonico's on sunday. >> reporter: delmonico's

well. schraff's and howard johnson's. ? on the road around the corner here's the place to go ? howard johnson? ? howard johnson's ? ? join the folks who know ? >> howard johnson's is the basis for not only the fast food industry like mcdonald's or burger king but the fast casual industry like chili's or denny's. >> that will be $6.18. >> reporter: americans now snd buying food to cook at home. and even if you never step foot in the place that started it all, don't ever forget, your favorite neighborhood joint has a lot more in common than you might think with iconic restaurants like delmonico's. have you ever been somewhere else and you open up the menu and you see lobster newburg or you see delmonico steak -- >> all the time. >> -- and you think to yourself, that's my place. >> all the time.

by now your thanksgiving dinner is likely all cleaned up and the leftovers tucked away in the fridge. so the last thing you might want to think about now is a giant bird. well, in england the bones of this bird, the dodo, fetched big money at auction. the dodo was so tasty that sailors hunted and ate them to extinction. is there a lesson in that for us? mark phillips reports. >> of course concern over the environment and the u.s. approach to it is one of the main mysteries of what the trump administration will do. and there has been a little of a lesson here on how influential people can be. that lesson came at an auction for, as you say, a rare bird. >> i'm going to start the bidding with me at 250,000 pounds.

>> reporter: more than a collection of old bones was on the block at this auction. those bones once assembled formed the world's most famous dead bird. the dodo. >> dead as a dodo just rolls off the tongue sort of beautifully, doesn't it? >> reporter: the phrase stuck, says dodo expert errol fuller, not just because did was catchy but because the dodo's extinction is so well documented. hungry european sailorfo island of mauritius in the late 1500s. within about 80 years the hapless and significantly flightless bird was gone. dead as. the dodo has been extinct for more than 300 years. yet it is still the most important symbol of what mankind can do to nature if it isn't careful or if it doesn't care. if the dodo and its lessons live

>> reporter: it's hard to put a price on a lesson. but auction house owner rupert vanderverth says he was selling an idea. is this an example of man's folly? >> it really brings it home, that we can have a big impact on the environment. >> reporter: make no bones about it. >> animal and bird species are being made extinct at a faster rate than ever. and that is one way or another our fault, or mankind's fault. so whether we're actually learning the lesson, i don't think i'd like to say. >> reporter: or whet >> well, that's a possibility too. >> reporter: the bird went for -- >> 280,000 pounds. and sold for 280,000 -- >> reporter: about $416,000 with commissions. a big price for a big lesson. there are only about 20 complete dodo skeletons around. almost all of them like the one sold at the auction made up of bones from many birds. if you're going to eat a dodo, apparently you just stick the
