There used to be Neanderthals (homo sapiens neanderthalensis) and a few others, we basically interbred them out of existence.
While we did fuck them a lot, knowing us, I don't think that's what caused their extinction.
Not so sure, except for a last few holdouts in Spain about 40k years ago, who were probably whipped out by natural catastrophe along with regular humans in that area.
I think we kept diluting their gene pool by having sex with them and out breeding them.
What do you mean? We are still around.
