TPO34
Both the reading and the lecture discuss the main cause of the sea cows' extinction. The reading implies that such decreasing population results from three hypotheses, while the lecturer remains doubtful of each statement. He further provides three refutations.
First of all, the article mentions it is humans' hunting activity that generates the serious extinction problem. However, the professor strongly contradicts such claim by mentioning the body mass of the sea cows. In fact, the sea cows have been recorded to have a length if nine meters long and a weight of ten tons, thus, one sea cow could satisfy the native Siberian people which only have a quite small population. Therefore, the first theory is thought of unconvincing.
Secondly, ecosystems disturbances are considered to account for the declining quantities of the marine species. Once again, the lecturer seriously disagrees with the claim because if the ecological changes indeed occurred, then other species should also be influenced as well. In contrast, other creatures such as whales are still reported safe and sound at that time. Therefore, ecological changes could not be the exact reason contributing to the extinction.
Last but not least, the fur traders from Europe are thought of as a critical reason responsible for the ecological disaster with respect to a previous record from 1768. Nevertheless, the professor highly casts doubt on such claim since the animal has suffered serious declining problem before the fur traders arrived their habitats. To be more specific, the population of sea cows has decreased for hundreds of years before the eighteenth century when these traders first came to the Bering Island. As a result, the fur traders could not play a key role in devastating the marine creature.
