The species could not adapt quickly enough to their changing environment to survive.
climate change and asteroid impact
Us.
Background extinctions are typically caused by natural events such as climate change, volcanic eruptions, or asteroid impacts. Mass extinctions are often attributed to catastrophic events like major asteroid impacts, volcanic eruptions, or significant climate change, which cause widespread disruption to ecosystems and species. Human activities, such as habitat destruction, pollution, and overexploitation of resources, can also contribute to both background and mass extinctions.
Extinctions!
Humans (Us). We are the cause of biological extinctions. We use natural resources exponentially. As mankind population increases the greater the chance of an increase percentage of a species extinction. All natural life is a cycle, once we disregard its benefits to us and overuse its properties we may find ourselves begging for just the basic mother nature has to offer us.
natural selection
False A+
Introduced species, also known as non-native or exotic species, are organisms that are brought into a new habitat where they do not naturally occur. They can cause significant ecological damage by outcompeting native species for resources, disrupting food webs, and altering habitats. Additionally, introduced species can introduce diseases and parasites that native species are not equipped to handle. This can lead to declines or extinctions of local wildlife and a loss of biodiversity.

Human activities and natural disasters
Tylacine(or Tasmanian wolf), moa, steller's sea cow, and the Guam flying fox are some extict animals.
While natural events like climate change and natural disasters can contribute to plant and animal extinctions, human activities such as habitat destruction, pollution, overhunting, and introduction of invasive species are significant causes as well. These human-induced factors often accelerate the rate of extinction beyond what would occur naturally.
