Humans are a major factor. I am not an expert, but I can help a little bit. Humans cut down trees that woodpeckers nest in and feed from. Destroying habitats, polluting skies, and killing prey contribute to the demise of the woodpecker.

What factor might contribute to the extinction of the woodpecker?
Not all woodpeckers obtain their food from trees, some feed on the ground, but they do need trees for nesting. So the removal of trees from areas where woodpeckers live would be a factor leading to their extinction. Another factor would be the overuse of insecticides as has already happened in the reduction of numbers of some species of birds.
