The desert kangaroo, specifically the species known as the "desert rat kangaroo" (Bettongia spp.), faced extinction primarily due to habitat loss, hunting, and the introduction of invasive species. Changes in land use, particularly for agriculture and urban development, significantly reduced their natural habitats. Additionally, predation by introduced species such as foxes and cats, along with competition for resources, further contributed to their decline. Conservation efforts have been made, but these factors led to their extinction in the wild.
