WHAT DOES EXTINCTION MEAN

An animal is considered extinct when the last remaining member of its species
dies out and there is not a single individual left on Earth. Causes of
extinction might include an epidemic, extreme climate changes, loss of food
sources, and destruction of their natural habitats. When a large number of
species goes out of existence in some major calamity, it is called an extinction
event

Out of all the extinction events witnessed by the Earth since it first came into
existence, the ‘Big Five’ extinction events have been the most crucial in making
the world the way it is today. These major extinction events have caused
gigantic animals like dinosaurs, mammoths, and giant sloths to go out of
existence, while certain birds and smaller animals like the dodo and golden toad
could not survive either.




COMMON SPECIES THAT HAVE GONE EXTINCT

Billions of species have been lost throughout the planet’s history, whether due
to natural causes or human activities. Though dinosaurs are the first to come to
our mind when thinking about extinct animals, countless other, equally
fascinating, species have been pushed to extinction over time.

There are still numerous animals and birds that have gone extinct in recent
decades, with even more of them on the verge of dying out. Animals like the
Spix’s macaw (Brazil), Zanzibar leopard (Tanzania), Baiji River Dolphin (China),
and Pinta Island Tortoise (The Galápagos) are considered extinct with their last
(known) surviving specimens dead; though there are often reports of possible
sightings, which needs further verification.

KNOW IF A SPECIES HAS GONE EXTINCT



Multiple wildlife conservation organizations keep track of different species and
their population trends, taking measures to help them survive. The International
Union for Conservation of Nature and Natural Resources (IUCN), established in
1948, is one of the most authoritative among these.

They classify animals in various conservation statuses (depending on their
number and population trends), including ‘Least Concern’, ‘Threatened’,
‘Endangered’, and lastly ‘Extinct’. This makes it easy for us to find out any
animal’s ‘Conservation Status’.
