Extinction is
mostly caused by the lack of adaptation to an environment. Lets say that you
are a deer, you lived in a nice grass filled area but then you wondered off to
far from home and you end up in a place where there is no water or grass. What
do you do? You look for for a sign of water or food. Looking for the food you
get tried and your low on energy. You don’t come across anything and soon
enough you end up dying form not adapting to the area you come across. If
another deer does the same thing you did then that deer would also end up dying
form not adapting. Organisms that cannot survive by adapting to other areas are
most likely to become extinct. 10 animals have become extinct in the past 100
year already. Pyrenean ibex, Baiji, Zanaibar leopard, Jamaican Giant Galliwasp,
Cuban Ivory-Billed Woodpecker, Gunam flying fox, Bali Tiger, Tasmanian Tiger,
Newfoundland wolf, And California Gizzly Bear. Animals that cannot survive
adaption they soon will become extinct. Adaption is very important because if
you do not adapt to an area then you’ll soon enough die.
