Human settlement and the destruction of land on the Oahu Island have lead to the extinction of the achatinella mustelina. The over collection of shells on the island also led to the decline of the achatinella mustelina population.
Humans brought a predator snail from north America that ate them all
The Achatinella mustelina is a gastropod that is from Oahu, Hawaii. The snail is endangered due to the destruction of its habitat.
Some of them are not all of them are caused by humans
Habitat destruction caused by humans and therefore increased competition with other animals for food caused the achatinella mustelina to become extinct. The above answer is not entirely correct. The main reason for the extinctions of not only Achatinella mustelina (if it is indeed extinct) and a large percentage of other native Hawaiian land snails is: 1.)the accidental introduction of rats to the Islands and, more critically.. 2.)the deliberate introduction (as a biocontrol for the Giant African Snail, a non-native agricultural pest) in the 1950's of the Rosy Wolf Snail or Euglandina rosea, a cannibal snail which is a voracious predator of Hawaiian land snails. This, combined with very low reproductive rates (many Achatinellidae give birth only once or twice a year, to single keiki) has proven disastrous for Hawai'i's native arboreal and land snails. In giving birth, the parent snail holds the egg inside its shell and when the baby crawls out, it is a fully formed miniature of the adult. Some (myself included) would liken this to live birth, which gives these snails a humanlike quality. It is indeed a tragedy that many of these natural wonders (which occupied Hawai'i for millenia before the coming of humans) are disappearing within the span of one human lifetime. Many of Hawai'i's native forest birds have shared a similar fate.
The extinction of animals is caused by humans killing animals. Extinction of animals may also be caused by pollution or forest fires that are killing off the plants and trees.
The answer to this question is not known. It is possible humans hunted the mammoths into extinction. It is also likely we will never be certain about the answer to this question. We have caused the extinction of numerous other interesting species, such as thylacine.
Humans from North America brought a predator snail and other animals that ate the snail to Hawaii.
dogs and rats
perhaps a new age of living creatures will come . or the earth will end before the extinction of humans .
The thylacine or Tasmanian tiger was hunted to extinction; they were intentionally removed from existence by humans. There was no natural event that caused their end.
