Flamingos aren't extinct
No?
Only in Zoos. Flamingos are a tropical species , and the main staple of their diet is shrimp, which also gives them their color. Outside of a temperature-controlled habitat in a Zoo, a Flamingo would not survive one winter in Canada.
No. There are no wild flamingos in Australia today. Australia is the only continent without flamingos (apart from Antarctica). However, fossil evidence show that, from the Oligocene until the Pleistocene, Australia did have it's own species of flamingos, inhabiting Lake Eyre, they became extinct when Australia became more arid and the network of inland water bodies that supported them dried up.

If an animal in a ecosystem chain became extinct - the WHOLE ecosystem would collapse because, believe it or not, every single species counts. For example, if a bird species in a forest became extinct - everything that ate the bird would die without their "food" and everything that ate them would die and so on and so forth.
The animal population would tend to go "extinct" -Dr. Bosch
Fortunatly,not now. But,we must be careful because there are not as many as there used to be.
There are six species in the genus Phoenicopterus, four of them in the Americas:- Greater Flamingo (Phoenicopterus roseus) - parts of Africa, S. Europe and SW Asia- Lesser Flamingo (Phoenicopterus minor) - Great Rift Valley Africa to NW India- Chilean Flamingo (Phoenicopterus chilensis) - temperate S. South America.- James's Flamingo (Phoenicopterus jamesi) - in the southern Andes of South America- Andean Flamingo (Phoenicopterus andinus) - the southern Andes- American Flamingo (Phoenicopterus ruber) - northern South America and the CaribbeanThe Lesser Flamingo is the most numerous of the species. The American flamingoes as seen in Florida are the only species living in North America, although extinct species may have lived on the continent.
A population of organisms having few variations living in an unstable environment.
The extinction of one species can disrupt an ecosystem by affecting its food web and interactions among species. This can lead to population imbalances, reduced biodiversity, and potentially cascading effects on other species that relied on the extinct species for food or other resources. Without the extinct species playing its role in the ecosystem, the balance and functioning of the ecosystem can be negatively impacted.
