The continents used to all be connected, which means animals were free to roam. If they were free to roam, then they obviously spread out throughout the continent. So when this continent separated, the same species ended up on new continents because they had originally spread out.
When the continent separated some of the same species ended up on different continents. This is because the continent was so large the species were distributed across the continent. So, when it split, some were on one side and others of the same species were on the other side.
The era that ended with Earth covered in massive deserts was the Permian period, specifically during the Permian-Triassic extinction event around 252 million years ago. This mass extinction event wiped out nearly 96% of marine species and 70% of terrestrial vertebrate species, leading to widespread desertification of the planet.
During the most recent Ice Age, which ended around 11,700 years ago, the two main changes on Earth were the expansion of glaciers and ice sheets, covering large portions of continents, and the drop in sea levels as water became trapped in ice. These changes had significant impacts on the environment and led to the migration and adaptation of many species, including early humans.
When the ice age ended, the Earth's climate warmed, causing glaciers to melt and sea levels to rise. The warming climate also led to the extinction of many species adapted to the cold, while enabling the spread of new flora and fauna. Additionally, human populations and civilizations flourished as they were able to cultivate crops and settle in more hospitable regions.
When the ice age ended, the land that was once covered in ice was now covered in vegetation and water. This led to the formation of lakes, rivers, and forests as the glaciers retreated. The land also became suitable for habitation by various species of plants and animals.

The continents used to be one continent. The species all lived on one continent since there was only one, so they were distributed throughout. However, when the continent began to split and more continents formed, these species were separated. Then, evolution and adaptation began to set in (as it had before though) and these species became even more different from each other.
Animals ended up evolving in to the modern day animals today because the work use to be connected together into one big supercontinent then it all separtated into smaller continents and eventually became like the world we know today. As all the continents separated the animals changed as well. This is because the climates changed as the continents changed so the animals evolved to suit those conditions. For example most of the native animals of Australia are very different to the ones anywhere else in the world this is because Australia has been separated from the rest of the world for an extremely long time so the animals have evolved differently from animals anywhere else in the world.
When they were exiled from Jerusalem, they ended up all over the world.
The Permian Period was ended by the Permian/Triassic Extinction Event, which wiped out 90% of the species on Earth at that time.
Noah built an "ark" and took in all species until the flood ended.
Identically Different ended in 2002.
The theory of continental drift explains how kangaroo fossils could have been found in Africa, as it suggests that continents were once connected as a single landmass called Pangaea. Over time, the continents drifted apart to their current positions, carrying fossils with them. This helps to explain how species like kangaroos, which are native to Australia, could have ended up in Africa in the past.
even thought all the continents you see today used to be all together in a land called Pangea.then the continental plates shifted and there you find fossils from the polar regions identical to the coast of africa...
