    Number 1:The Ordovician Silurian extinction This extinction happened about 439 million years ago because of a drop in sea levels as glaciers formed. An ice age has been blamed for the cause of the extinctions. A large ice sheet in the southern hemisphere caused climate change and a decrease in sea levels. A combination of this lowering of sea level caused a reduction in ecospace on continental shelves, and the cooling caused by the glaciation itself are some of the big factors for the…
