Mare aux Songes encircled on a map of the Mauritian railway system in 1866
The Mare aux Songes (English: "sea of taro";[1]French:[ma.ʁ‿osɔ̃ʒ]) swamp is a lagerstätte located close to the sea in south eastern Mauritius. Many subfossils of recently extinct animals have accumulated in the swamp, which was once a lake, and some of the first subfossil remains of dodos were found there.
