What is extinction?
How did Dinosaurs become extinct?
Polar Bears
For a millennium, the majestic, lily-white polar bear has lorded over the frozen wastes of the Arctic. But if two Russian experts are to be believed, the enigmatic “monarch of the ice” could be extinct in 25 years due to global warming and human incursions into their traditional habitat.
Panda Bear
Pandas are dying out mainly because of one main reason: habitat loss. Their main source of food is bamboo, which takes a long time to grow. Humans continue to hunt the Panda Bear also being a main cause.
White Fringeless Orchid
The white fringeless orchid (Platanthera integrilabia) is found in approximately 10 states of the United States; however, due to a change in land use, the white fringeless orchid is becoming rarer to find and before long it is feared that the plant species will be extinct.
