What is Understanding Evolution and Extinction about?
Paleontology studies evolution and extinction by examining how species change over time through adaptation and natural selection. Species typically go extinct within two million years, but catastrophic events like meteorite impacts or volcanic eruptions can simultaneously wipe out many species by altering the climate. While some extinction is normal, humans are currently driving extinction rates much higher than the historical average by activities like hunting, pollution, climate change and habitat loss.
