Question

State whether true or false:
Species that cannot be found in the wild in their natural habitats but are preserved in man-made settings like zoological parks are considered extinct.

• A. True
• B. False

Answer 1

The correct option is B False

Species that are considered extinct have no remaining members that can reproduce and propagate the species. Even if the members of a species no longer exist in the wild, but are protected in zoos, the species cannot be considered extinct. This species would be considered extinct in the wild.
