This list of North American animals extinct in the Holocene features animals known to have become extinct in the last 11,700 years on the North American continent. Animals recently extinct in the West Indies and Hawaii are in their own respective lists.

Common name | Scientific name | Range | Comments | Pictures |
---|---|---|---|---|
California grizzly bear | Population of the grizzly bear (Ursus arctos horribilis) | California | Last recorded at Sequoia National Park in 1924.[30] Though once named as the subspecies U. a. californicus, DNA evidence shows that it is not different enough to warrant separate status.[31] | ![]() |
Mexican grizzly bear | Population of the grizzly bear (Ursus arctos horribilis) | Aridoamerica | Last known individual killed in northern Sonora in 1976.[32] Though once named as the subspecies U. a. nelsoni, DNA evidence shows that it is not different enough to warrant separate status.[31] | ![]() |

Odd-toed ungulates (order Perissodactyla)
Horses and allies (family Equidae)
Common name | Scientific name | Range | Comments | Pictures |
---|---|---|---|---|
Mexican horse | Equus conversidens | Western North America | A small non-caballine species that coexisted in North America with the caballine horse (E. ferus).[38] The most recent remains were dated to 8965-8875 BCE.[3] | ![]() |

Common name | Scientific name | Range | Comments | Pictures |
---|---|---|---|---|
Wild horse | Equus ferus | Eurasia and the Americas | Environmental DNA last detected in permafrost of central Yukon dated to 3979-2640 BCE.[39] The Yukon population has been identified at times as a different species of caballine horse (Equus lambei) and a wild ass (both Equus hemionus and Equus africanus) on morphological grounds, but ancient mtDNA studies confirms caballine affiliation.[38] Domestic horses were introduced to the Americas by the Spanish in 1493 and a feral population was established in Querรฉtaro, Mexico by 1553.[40] | ![]() |
Even-toed ungulates (order Artiodactyla)

Common name | Scientific name | Range | Comments | Pictures |
---|---|---|---|---|
Atlantic gray whale | Population of the gray whale (Eschrichtius robustus) | North Atlantic Ocean and Mediterranean Sea | Last recorded in 1760. The same species survives on the Pacific Ocean.[41] A single individual, presumably dispersed over the Arctic, was observed off Florida in 2023 and Nantucket, Massachusetts in 2024.[42] | ![]() |

Locally extinct
Common name | Scientific name | Range | Comments | Pictures |
---|---|---|---|---|
Stag-moose | Cervalces scotti | Great Lakes Region | Most recent remains dated to 9230-8930 BCE.[3] | ![]() |
Eastern elk | Population of the North American wapiti (Cervus canadensis canadensis) | Eastern North America | Traditionally considered the nominate subspecies, but genetic research indicates that there are not enough differences to consider separate subspecies of C. canadensis in North America, and the taxon C. c. canadensis is not extinct as a result.[43][44] The last confirmed individual was killed near the Clarion River of central Pennsylvania in 1867, though there were unconfirmed sightings in 1869-1870, and ten claimed killings in northern Pennsylvania in 1878. Western elk were reintroduced for hunting purposes in the same state in 1912.[45] | ![]() |
Merriam's elk | Population of the North American wapiti (Cervus canadensis canadensis) | New Mexico, Arizona, and West Texas | Named as the species Cervus merriami in 1902 on the basis of a single skull; in 1978, an anatomical review of a dozen individuals found just enough of a case to consider it a subspecies of Cervus elaphus (later C. canadensis). Further anatomical and genetic research suggest that all American wapiti likely belong to the same subspecies and that the taxon C. c. merriami is a synonym of C. c. canadensis. Wapiti from other regions have been reintroduced to the purported distribution area of Merriam's elk.[44] | |
Queen Charlotte Islands caribou | Population of the caribou (Rangifer tarandus) | Graham Island, British Columbia | Described as the subspecies R. t. dawsoni in 1900 due to its isolated location and anatomical differences, but mtDNA studies in 2002 showed not enough differences to warrant separate status.[46] The last known herd was found in 1908, comprising two adult males, one female, and one calf; all but the calf were killed.[47] |

Common name | Scientific name | Range | Comments | Pictures |
---|---|---|---|---|
Passenger pigeon | Ectopistes migratorius | Eastern North America | One of the most numerous birds at the beginning of the 19th century, it declined dramatically as a result of hunting, Newcastle disease, and the clearance of hardwood trees in which it fed, until the last individual in the wild was shot in 1900.

Extinct in the wild
Common name | Scientific name | Range | Comments | Pictures |
---|---|---|---|---|
Socorro dove | Zenaida graysoni | Socorro Island, Mexico | Last recorded in the wild in 1972. It declined as a result of predation by introduced cats, hunting, and habitat degradation caused by feral goats and Central American locusts.

New World vultures and condors (family Cathartidae)
Common name | Scientific name | Range | Comments | Pictures |
---|---|---|---|---|
Painted vulture | Sarcoramphus sacra | Florida | Hypothetical species known from a 1774 description by William Bartram. Though traditionally dismissed as a hoax or incorrect description of a king vulture from Central and South America (S. papa), which it resembled in everything except the tail's coloration and more predatory behavior, a 1734 account of the same bird and painting by Eleazar Albin, and a 1786 depiction of the tail feathers as part of a standard used by the Muscogee king Mico Chlucco suggest that it was an actual extirpated Floridan population of the king vulture, subspecies, or related species.[64] | ![]() |
