Extinctions in Britain over the period have thus had three main causes: Climate change as the ecosystem swung from temperate woodland and pasture, through open mammoth steppe to uninhabitable polar desert, and back. Habitat loss brought about by human activities, such as the clearing of woodland or draining of marshland. Hunting by humans.
