What triggers an extinction event, and how do scientists use evidence of mass extinctions to prepare for the future? Explore the causes of extinction throughout geologic time and learn how humans are having an impact today. Meet scientists who use their discoveries to understand our changing climate and explore conservation success stories of local species brought back from the edge of extinction.
