A4.2.3—Anthropogenic species extinction Topic Practice
Practise recognising human-driven extinction from evidence, including how overhunting caused the loss of the North Island giant moa.
How this is tested
- link the timing of moa extinction after human arrival to overhunting as the cause
- distinguish overhunting from unsupported options such as disease or competition
- interpret MCQ evidence about named species extinctions caused by human activity
