How to use "Extinct" in context?
There is no question that extinction is a looming danger for many species of plants and animals. In recent centuries, extinction rates have accelerated beyond the natural rate, and several species have gone extinct in the last few decades. Recently, the extinction of the Passenger Pigeon has come to epitomize the dangers of humans tampering with the natural world.
Extinction is a natural process that results in the loss of a species from the Earth. The time needed for a species to go extinct can be quite lengthy, but often times it occurs much more quickly than we would like.
