Match each species to its story of overexploitation.

a. Dodo
b. Canadian cod
c. Rothschild's orchid

4. This species was almost wiped out by collectors who prized its rarity.
5. Once a major resource in Canada, the population crashed in the 1990s. Recovery is slow because they cannot reproduce until age 7.
