Giant kangaroos are believed to have become extinct anywhere from 15,000 years ago to around 45,000 years ago.
Kangaroos which are extinct include:The genus Procoptodon which consisted of the giant short-faced kangaroosThe genus Protemnodon which consisted of the giant wallabies
Kangaroos are in no danger of becoming extinct.
Giant kangaroos became extinct many thousands of years ago. They were herbivores, as kangaroos are today, roaming the extensive grasslands of Australia and feeding on the grasses there. New evidence suggests that their extinction was caused by severe drought, which killed off the giant kangaroos' food supply.
Yes.
It is uncertain why the giant kangaroos (Procoptodon goliah) are extinct, but there are two main theories about what happened to the "giant kangaroos" that roamed Australia thousands of years ago.One theory blames the arrival of the aboriginal people. However, recent research coming out of the Queensland University of Technology has indicated that their extinction may be due to a massive drought and climate change.
There are many extinct animals but here are some examples: woolly mammoth, Tasmanian Tiger, dodo, cave bear, saber tooth tiger, giant kangaroos
Giant kangaroos no longer exist.
Because giant pandas are endangered species! They could become extinct!
The Giant short faced kangaroo became extinct because of loss of habitat
Deforestation and people hunting and eating them.
No a kangaroo is not an ungulate mammal but it is a Marsupial mammal.Ungulates are placental mammals.
Giant kangaroos were believed to have existed around 6000 to 10000 years ago.
