Question
Arnav read about how some animal species are going extinct. He was concerned and wondered why this was happening. His teacher told him that this was because of the loss of their habitats, but that in the Paleolithic Era, they used to go extinct due to a completely different reason. Can you help Arnav out by selecting the reason for their extinction?

Solution
The correct options are
A Due to being hunted endlessly by hominids.
B Due to the changing weather conditions.
Once the hominids finished hunting all the animals in their area and ended up using all the nearby resources from the forests, they used to move around in search of more food. This rapid hunting did not give the animals enough time to reproduce, and as a result, many went extinct. Another reason was the changing environment and how many species were unable to adapt to it.
