Organisms often become extinct as a result of humans continuing to hunt and kill them even though they might be very few in numbers & there are no mates available with whom they can reproduce. Another cause or contributing cause can be when the basic ecological environment in which the organism requires to live & reproduce in the wild is removed or destroyed. Sometimes when people introduce foreign species to new places, they drive native species (that have not evolved a defense mechanism) to extinction. For example, introducing dogs to an island that does not have any large predators and on which Flightless Birds live. Starvation, disease, and environmental changes e.g. Ice ages, and meteor strikes.

Extinction is the rule, not the exception. That being said, I would not like to be responsible for the extinction of an animal.
Absolutely ! The human race is the only animal species on the planet that has hunted other species to extinction.
The disappearance of a species from all parts of an environment is known as extinction. This occurs when the last existing member of a species dies, leading to its complete disappearance from the planet. Extinction can be caused by various factors, including habitat destruction, climate change, pollution, and hunting.
The major causes of extinction include habitat destruction, climate change, pollution, overexploitation of resources, and introduction of invasive species. These factors can disrupt ecosystems and lead to the decline and eventual extinction of species.
The death of every member of a species is known as extinction. This typically occurs when a species no longer has any living members, often due to factors such as environmental changes, habitat destruction, or human activities. Extinction can have significant ecological and biodiversity impacts.

An extinct animal is an animal that has no living member on Earth i.e. all of that species have died.

The animal that the railroads nearly drove to extinction was the Buffalo. The railroads severely destroyed the buffalo's natural habitat.
