What animals are extinct?

Answer 1

There are several species of large cats that have gone extinct with in the last decade or so.

* The Caspian Tiger - last seen in the wild in 1961. * The Javan Tiger - last confirmed alive in the wild in 1972. * The Balinese Tiger - last noted alive in 1937. * The Cape Lion * The Barbary Lion - Last confimed in the wild in 1922 although still bread in captivity. There are also many species of large cat that became extinct many thousands of years ago. These include:

* The Saber Tooth Tiger * Panthera Atrox * Dinictis * The Cave Lion

Answer 2

There are approximately 1000-1100 species of mammal and birds that are extinct.

Some species of plants and animals die out naturally because newer species are more successful at competing for food and living space. Others have become extinct because of changes in the planet or because of natural disasters. Dinosaurs, for example, may have died out because the climate became cooler--maybe because an asteroid collided with the earth and caused a big cloud of dust that blocked out the sun.

In today's world, however, species mostly become extinct or are threatened with extinction because of humans. Humans hunt animals, destroy their habitats, and introduce other animals that prey upon the endangered animals or compete for their resources. Among these factors, the greatest threat to plants and animals is habitat destruction.

It is estimated that about 125 species of birds and 60 species of mammals have become extinct since 1600. Currently, there are approximately 1000-1100 species of birds and mammals that are facing extinction. If invertebrates and plants are included, the total number of species in imminent danger is around 20,000.

are animals that are gone dead and have no more bodies available

millions of animals are extinct, 99.9% is now extinct, the most famous are the dinosaurs, smilodon and wooly momoth but there are many more

there are a lot but some are: tyrannosaurus Rex, brontosaurus, pteranodon, wooly mammoth, archaeopteryx, Tasmanian wolf, stegosaurus, giant ground sloth, saber toothed cat, dodo, dinichthys, and plesiosaurus,\. :)

There are more extinct animal species than there are living ones. Every animal before the modern geological period is extinct, and many modern ones have become extinct since humans evolved!

Extinct animals is well, when an animal doesn't exist anymore. Either there was simply not enough food left or water, or they were hunted until they simply were gone.

Answer 4

The cat isn't a species,rather it's a family having a number of genera under it which in turn have a number of species under each of them.and now the answer to your question is that a few members of the cat family have gone extinct(like the saber tooth tiger) for various reasons, while a few are on the verge of extinction(like the royal bengal tiger) mainly due to to uninterrupted exploitation of their natural habitats by humans.but the domestic cat is still there lingering around you!!!!so you can't say that cats have gone extinct.
