The
extinction of an animal species always brings finality, but in the wake of the
demise of species other creatures can prosper. More than 99% of the species
which once roamed our planet no longer exist, yet a rich range of plants and
animals survived.
In a
new exhibition - Extinction: Not the end of the world? - the Natural History
Museum in London explores how extinction can have a long-lasting effect on
other creatures, and looks at those animals facing an uncertain future in the
21st Century. Take a look with exhibition developer Alex Fairhead.
Extinction:
Not the end of the world? can be seen at the Natural History Museum, London,
until 8 September 2013.
