Poor genes can lead to extinction by causing lives to become shorter due to higher incidences of death by disease or weakness. These poor genes combine with other poor genes to create people or animals that are unable to live long and healthy lives.

Why poor reproductive succes lead to extinction?

Yes poor reproductive succes does lead to extinction most of the time. for example the whooping crane reproduces very slowly. The first fledging to emerge from its egg kills its brother or sister. Less animals, slow reproduction. If there were ever accidents or if the animal died, and they never had babies, the more and more often that this happens the more likely that animal is to eventually become extinct.
