Because of the human population rising and of hunting or accidental kills. Many animals have been hunted extinct or their homes are taken over by us cutting down their forest
An endangered species is a species of plants or animals that is at risk of becoming extinct in the near future. This could be due to factors such as habitat loss, climate change, poaching, or pollution. Conservation efforts are often made to try to protect and increase the population of endangered species.
When a species dies out completely, it becomes extinct.
If all animals go extinct there will be no need for food!
If lemurs became extinct quickly, their niche would a cause a loss of predation. Also, those things that the lemurs eat would also increase exponentially.
An animal that eats both plants and insects is called an omnivore.
There are an estimated 20,000 species of plants and animals currently at risk of extinction due to human activities. Some of the plants already made extinct by humans are Archaefructus, Dillhoffia, and Sphenophyllum. Some animals extinct because of humans include Quagga, Thylacine, and Steller's Sea Cow.
Propagate the plant and save the animal. The plants are not likely to become extinct by dint of being eaten by the animal. However, the animal is far more likely to become extinct by loss of its fodder.
When they are becoming extinct we can save them and raise them til their population goes up. And we can kill less animals and eat and burn less plants.
Some species are becoming extinct. It is due to various environmental factors. Deforestation, ozone depletion are some.
Currently, there is no list of extinct plants in the Philippines. However, there is a long list of critically endangered plants, and of endangered plants.
there would only be plants

The statement says that many species of animals are plants are becoming extinct, due to depletion of forests, which serves as habitats and protection for the animals.
There are 2370 species of plants and animals on the US Fish and Wildlife Service website; see related links.
Under the Endangered Species Act of 1973 "the term 'endangered species' means any species which is in danger of extinction throughout all or a significant portion of its range other than a species of the Class Insecta determined by the Secretary to constitute a pest whose protection under the provisions of this Act would present an overwhelming and overriding risk to man. "A threatened species "means any species which is likely to become an endangered species within the foreseeable future throughout all or a significant portion of its range." In other words, an endangered species is a group of plants or animals that is in danger of becoming extinct. Many scientists say a species is endangered when its numbers are so low or its habitat so threatened that it will become extinct in 10 to 15 years unless conservation measures are used to save it. People who study wildlife think there are at least 10 million and possibly as many as 30 million species of plants and animals on Earth. They estimate that more than one-tenth of these species are endangered. That adds up to at least one million kinds of plants and animals that could become extinct by the year 2015. In recent years the rate of extinction has increased rapidly in many places . In the past 300 years, about 100 kinds of mammals have become extinct. Right now hundreds of birds, mammals, reptiles, amphibians, and fish are endangered, as well as more than 25,000 plants. The American Museum of Natural History in New York reports: "Three species become extinct every hour of every day. More than 30 species become extinct while you sleep at night. More than 20,000 species become extinct every year."
