  2. Animals becoming extinct due to the change of environment or temperature. Some animals became extinct by evolving. Some animals became extinct by killings by humans and deaths. some animals today were now in danger. Some animals were endangered. It means, there population are decreasing, leading to extinction. Humans may extinct too. Everything here on earth must end. That's why it's the end of the mammoths' world because of changes in temperature. If a story will end, compare our real life to the story, everything must end. We need to stop extinction to others species by leaving them alone. Never disturb their live. Also never kill animals except for food only. Extinction is a big problem. These creatures, we'll never see them again only on your books......

  4. Wikipedia has a list of more than 2,000 critically endangered species. The main cause of extinction is loss of habitat. This may be due to destruction of habitat by deforestation and for building or farming, the use of pesticides and herbicides, and of course climate change. Extinction rates at this time are 100 to 1000 times the background rate (that is, the natural extinction rate).
