Well there could be a Meteor hitting the earth. that's what extincted the dinosaurs. maybe..

Natural Disasters such as volcanic eruptions, earthquakes, abrupt changes in the heating and cooling of Earth, glaciations, and meteors, can all cause extinction of animals.

Very slow changes allow animals to change and adapt to the new environment. Sudden changes don't. For example, if an animal was adapted to living in a consistently warm environment had it suddenly changes to a frigid one, all of this type of animal could freeze to death (become extinct) before adaption could take place.
