Here are some reasons that some species become extinct:

Thyllacine, the "marsupial wolf" was hunted into extinction, as was the passenger pigeon and probably the moa.

Competition for resources can drive species into extinction.

Disease and predators also take their toll.

Insecticides like DDT weaken bird egg shells so that fewer of them hatch.

Loss of habitat is yet another factor.

Animals Become Extinct Because Humans Hunt Them, Some For Food But Some Kill Animals Because They Are Afraid Of It. Like The Dinasour It Became Extinct Not Only Because Of Human Hunters, Also Because The Dinasours Were Growing Very Old And Soon Each One Died And That Is Why You Mostly Find Fossils Of Dinasours Under Piles Of Earth. So Animals Get Extinct Just Like Humans. It Is Either They Grow Old Or They Are Killed.

There could be multiple reasons, for one humans could hunt a specific species for fur meat etc. Another reason could be to do with climate change which causes there habitat to physically change.

Various reasons such as loss of enviroment, change of habitat, hunters, and unsucessful reproducing ways. For example, the Great Panda. They are loosing their enviroment due to pollution and food sources and the cutting down of trees. There are also people who illegally hunt them even though there are only a few left. Also due to their increasingly smaller population, its harder to find a mate. If they sucessfully find a mate, their babies are so small that often times the mother accidentally sits or lays on the baby, killing it. Hope that helps :)

many ways... an animals biome can be affected in the way that it can die, humans can over hunt and spread pollutants throughout an animals habitat, it can very rarely be because of other animals, but on extremely slight occasions. It can also be because of climate change and what is called habitat change. This is where over thousands of years specific animals naturally lose their habitat, and then slowly die of starvation or lack of habitat, like the spinosaurus. It is CRAZY how many things and changes made to earth can impact the animal kingdom so much!

Some animals go extinct because they become extremely specialized for a particular environment or food item. When the environment changes, they cannot adapt fast enough, so they die out.
