Why Do Animals Go Extinct?

🦖 Have you ever wondered where the dinosaurs went? Or why we don’t see Woolly Mammoths walking around anymore? Join Dr. Owl, Curious Emma, and Ziggy the Robot as they solve the mystery of extinction! In this episode, we learn what happens when an animal’s "home" changes too fast, why the Earth is like a giant game of Jenga, and how you can become a real-life "Habitat Hero" right in your own backyard.
