 The dried London foot , first mentioned in 1665 , and transferred to the British Museum in the 18th century , was displayed next to Savery 's Edwards 's Dodo painting until the 1840s , and it too was dissected by Strickland and Melville . It was not posed in a standing posture , which suggests that it was severed from a fresh specimen , not a mounted one . By 1896 it was mentioned as being without its integuments , and only the bones are believed to remain today , though its present whereabouts are unknown .
