    Extinct animals
    “Extinction is the process of Extinctions have been a natural
    evolution that leads to the part of our planet's evolutionary
    disappearance of a population or history. More than 99% of the
    species. four billion species that have
    evolved on Earth are now
    gone. At least 900 species
    have gone extinct in the last five
    centuries. Only a small
    percentage of species have been
    evaluated for their extinction
    risk.
    Types of extinct animals
    •Passenger Pigeon.
    •Dodo.
    •Tasmanian Tiger.
    •Baiji White Dolphin.
    •Pyrenean Ibex.
    •Stellers Sea Cow.
    •Great Auk.
    •Mammoth.
    Dodo<raphus cucullatus>
    The dodo (Raphus cucullatus)
    is an extinct species
    of flightless bird from
    Mauritius. Like many other
    island birds, they lost the power
    of flight because it was no
    advantage where they lived.
    Dodos were in the same family
    as the pigeon. ... They became
    extinct in the late 17th century.
    dinosaurs
    Dinosaurs were the main animals on
    Earth for more than 150 million years.
    They were lizard like reptiles. Some
    of them were the largest and scariest
    creatures that ever walked on land. The
    word dinosaur comes from Greek
    words meaning “terrible lizard.”
    Woolly Mammoth
    Woolly mammoths are extinct
    relatives of today's elephants.
    Woolly mammoths lived during
    the last ice age, and they may
    have died off when the weather
    became warmer and their food
    supply changed. Humans may
    also be partly responsible for
    their disappearance due to
    hunting.
    How to prevent extinction
    To save animals from extinction
    we say no to these—
    • Say no to hunter for hunt
    animals.
    • Say no to buy animal product
    like animal heads, elephant
    trunk teeth , tiger skin coat or
