Because some things are meant to live and some are meant to die. That's how God intended to do it. It wasn't animal's, or whatever's, time.

Answer:There is still life on Earth because life finds a way. As fragile as life is, you would think it would not take much to snuff it out completely, but look at grass. We have paved and cemented over huge areas of this planet, yet in ever parking lot, in the cracks of every sidewalk (and where there are no crack, cracks will be made) there is grass. It takes very little to kill grass. You can pull it up by the roots. You can burn it. you can spray it with herbicide, but it still comes back. Why? Because life finds a way.

If you are a Creationist, you know that God intended for life to go on. God built the universe with laws and logic, and life continues, no matter what we do with our free will.

If you are an Evolutionist or and atheist, you know that this accident has set into motion and what a huge motion it is. Conservation of energy and entropy aside, life has existed for so long that billions of years will pass before what started can be extinguished completely.

Which ever side of the stage you fall on, you have to admit that life will go on. It may not go as we intend it. It may be drastically changed by our meddling and our apathy. But, life will go on.
