A small animal with a rapid heartbeat.
sure! But it can also be affected by the reinforcing stimulus provided by a tree or a rock too--
Operant stimulus control is achieved when a behavior consistently occurs in the presence of a specific stimulus due to its history of reinforcement or punishment. This means that the behavior is more likely to occur when that stimulus is present and less likely in its absence.
The reaction to a stimulus is called a response. An intensified stimulus usually evokes a more intense response. Of course the type of response to a stimulus depends on the nature of the stimulus. Scream at someone and they likely will feel verbally attacked. The screaming is the stimulus, feeling attacked is the response.

A stimulus is basically considered to be a detectable change inside or outside the body. If you sit quietly for a while, and then a loud noise goes off, that is a change from the quiet state, and therefore considered a stimulus. You most likely will jump.But if you get used to that loud noise, then you have adapted to it and it no longer triggers a response, it is no longer a stimulus; it is not changing.Basically something which urges a response is called a stimulus.
Extinction is most likely to be caused by environmental conditions. Dramatic changes to the climate can mean that species are no longer adapted to survive.
