Are you sure that's what they're asking? Pretty sure they mean how do we have more wooly mammoth DNA than dodo DNA as in, how do we know more of their genetic code?

In which case it's as issue of preservation, since wooly mammoth remains are often frozen in the tundra, whereas dodo birds lived in a tropical climate which does not lead to good preservation of organic remains.
