Why do species go extinct?

Answer 1

When conditions necessary for their survival and reproduction are not present

All living beings, plant or animal, need a suitable environment to survive. This includes temperature, atmosphere, and surroundings conducive to their being able to obtain food, grow, shelter against hostile elements, and to reproduce. If any of these conditions are not favourable then individuals within a population of like individuals start to die out and eventually the species goes extinct
