The option that is not an example of a nonrenewable resource is **animals**.
Coal, petroleum, and natural gas are all considered nonrenewable resources because they are formed over millions of years and are finite in supply. Once they are depleted, they cannot be replaced on a human timescale. In contrast, animals can reproduce and can be considered renewable resources if managed sustainably.
