tpo 34: extinction of sea cow on island
In this set of materials, the reading passage presents three theories about the cause of Steller's sea cows' extinction. However, the professor challenges these points and he finds them unlikely to describe sea cows' extinction.
Firstly, the author of the passage claims that population of sea cows decrease as a result of hunting by native settlers who searching for food and find sea cows as a proper source of food. In contrast, the lecturer rebuts this point and says that the native settlers' population were not large enough to hunt all sea cows, so they did not hunt a considerable number of sea cows. Hence, this reason unlikely responsible for sea cows decline.
Secondly, the reading mentions that the changes in ecosystem and decline in sea cows' food resources led to extinct these species. The professor, however, refutes this point by saying that if there was disturbance in ecosystem, it would affect other species; meanwhile, the records did not show any significant decrease on other marine animals such as wales. Therefore, the theory of decline in food resources could not justify sea cows' extinction.
Finally, the passage asserts that European traders who came to island hunted sea cows and passage blame those traders for extinction. Meanwhile, the professors challenges this point. The number of sea cow was already declined before European arrival. Hence other factors should put into account for sea cow's extinction.
