Yes, but not all animals, or maybe they'll go extinct slowly, like dogs and cats, unless we start eating they are not going to become extinct Yes, but not all animals, or maybe they'll go extinct slowly, like dogs and cats, unless we start eating them they are not going to become extinct
Many hundreds of years ago the Earth was teeming with very large populations of different animals, there were great herds of Gazelles with lions, hyenas and cheetahs in Arabia, now there are just a few gazelles. There were giant birds in Madagascar and New Zealand, now there are none. A few thousand years ago there were giant marsupials in Australia, giant sloths in S. America, giant cattle in Europe; now all gone.
Yes, we are denuding the world of other animals because there is no room left for them; we are keeping it all for ourselves.
In some cases, yes. Sometimes over hunting and pollution can bring species to a point where they cannot recover their numbers. Examples are the passenger pigeon, once the most common bird on the earth, Carolina parakeet, and dodo.
Mammals are not exempt, such as the thylacine, quagga, and aurochs, Mexican grizzly, Caspian tiger, Bali and Javan tiger, Barbary lion can attest.
they cause animal extintion by killing them and not taking care of the earth
no
Absolutely ! The human race is the only animal species on the planet that has hunted other species to extinction.
member of extinct species lacked adaption essential for survival
As part of the environment of other organisms humans can have great effects on speciation. Especially adaptive radiation. As we contribute heavily to the extinction of some species other species flow into those open niches and radiate outwards to possible speciation.
(of a species, family, or other group of animals or plants) having no living members; no longer in existence.
Aside from artificial selection humans are a large part of all other organisms environments. So, any barriers humans erect could bring about allopactric speciation, though I can not think of any specific examples there. Also, human caused extinctions can cause adaptive radiation of a species into the niche of a species driven extinct by humans.

Humans can cause the extinction of other species through habitat destruction, pollution, overhunting or overfishing, introduction of invasive species, and climate change. By altering ecosystems and changing environments, humans can disrupt food chains and cause irreparable harm to species that are unable to adapt quickly enough.
The answer to this question is not known. It is possible humans hunted the mammoths into extinction. It is also likely we will never be certain about the answer to this question. We have caused the extinction of numerous other interesting species, such as thylacine.
we the humans Remember that extinction is the rule not the exception. While humans currently play a part in the extinction of a number of species climate change, competition with other animals are primary factors in extinction. Other factors are a diminished gene pool and the inability to adapt to disease.
According to theory, the extinction started when humans began to disperse across the globe about 100,000 years ago. As population increased, the need for food also increased. As a result people began using agriculture. While humans move across the earth as predators, other species become their prey. The Sixth Extinction Theory says that while people evolve, the world is dying- because our evolution is draining the world's resources. Therefore, the result is that humans are slowly destroying the Earth and we are the cause of The Sixth Extinction.
I think that judgment day will came before than, either way NO

Bengal Tigers are not in fact extinct, though three sub species are. The cause of the extinction of these three sub species are over hunting, and habitat destruction. The same goes for the Endangering of the other six sub species still alive today. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tigers

A background extinction is the continuous extinction of individual species caused by climate change, disease, loss of habitat, and competitive disadvantages against other species. Background extinctions occur at a slow rate over time, affecting only a few species at one time.
many river dolpinhs face extinction(in Asia one species was declared extinct) and so do many other species
It frees up ecological niches for other species.
