How do scientists think the wooly mammoth became extinct?
There are three reasons why mammoths went extinct. Scientists have proven that they are all combined to get the result of mammoths dieng. They are: Humans hunting them down Lack of food -Mammoths were the biggest grass eaters after the ice age the grass land became trees Climate change
Where did mammoths live before they were extinct?
Mammoths lived all around the northern hemisphere.
How would climate change would make it difficult for mammoths to survive?
mammoths don't have a problem surviving...they're all extinct.
Why did the woolly mammoths become extinct?
No one knows for sure why the wooly mammoth became extinct. In about 13,000 BC, humans began developing new bifaced stone tools which enabled them to kill wooly mammoths. Most scientists think those tools caused the extinction of wooly mammoths. Other scientists question that theory because wooly mammoths had been decreasing in numbers in North America for 20,000 years. Probably the decline came because other animals developed and ate the same food. Such an animal could have been the caribou or reindeer. So with the number of wooly mammoths decreasing and humans hunting them, they became extinct. When all the large mammals were destroyed, humans did not become extinct. The new bifaced stone tools made agriculture possible. There are many theories, but a couple are that mammoths could not adapt quickly enough to the changing climate after the ice age, or that they were hunted to extinction by humans.
Are mammals extinct?
Not at all. Mammals are alive and well, and include all creatures with fur/hair and skin. Horses, dogs, cats, mice, kangaroos, bears, etc are all just a small sample of the mammals which are not extinct. Mammoths, on the other hand, were ancient mammals which are now extinct.
What do mammoths have in common?
1. All mammoths had long, dramatically curved tusks. 2. All mammoths had longer forelimbs than hind limbs. 3. All mammoths were grazers.
Did people have interaction with the woolly mammoths?
Yes. However, most, if not all, of the interactions between humans and mammoths were violent. Humans regularly hunted mammoths for food, and the fact that humans were threatening probably would have caused mammoths to attack humans when given the chance. This does not mean, however, that mammoths were generally aggressive animals.
If hippos became extinct what would happen to the environment?
nothing. nothing at all
What would happen if all the producers became extinct?
So will everything else.
What are the similarities and differences the extinction of mammoths and the possible extinction of Asian elephants?
This is a difficult question to answer because nobody knows for sure why mammoths became extinct. However, one hypothesis is that human activity (particularly over-hunting), was responsible for the extinction of mammoths, and Asian elephants are also threatened with extinction largely due to hunting. Another possible cause of the mammoth's extinction was habitat loss because of climate change. Habitat loss also effects Asian elephants, but for them, it is due to deforestation caused by humans. Note that there is one thing that all extinctions have in common. Extinction occurs when a species is unable to adapt to some change in the conditions of their environment. This may be climate change, habitat loss, the disappearance of their food supply, or even the appearance of a new species that over-hunts them, etc.
When did helicoprion become extinct?
It is not known specifically why the Helicoprion because extinct. It is thought that they became extinct in the Triassic period.
How did the Tyrannosaurs become extinct?
It is generally accepted that all the dinosaurs (apart form the birds) became extinct as a result of an astrobleme event.
