What else can I help you with?
What began million years ago?
Ice age
Why did elephants survive the ice age?
They didn't. There was not a single elephant which was alive when the Ice Age began, and still alive when the Ice Age ended. Elephants live a long time, but nowhere near as long as the Ice Age lasted.
When did the glaciers began to melt?
About 100 million years
Was there and ice age happening during the Jurassic Period?
The ice age began at the end of the Jurassic period, a theory of why the dinosaurs became extinct. <33
What came first the stone age or the ice age?
The Stone Age came before the Ice Age. The Stone Age began around 3.3 million years ago, while the Ice Age started around 2.6 million years ago.
What did people do after the last ice age?
They began to domesticate/tame animals and plants
What year did the ice age begin and end?
The present ice age began about 2.6 million years ago and it has not ended yet. We are in a warm period within an ice age. The last glaciation started about 110,000 years ago and ended about 10,000 years ago.
Are you in an ice age?
We are all in an ice age. It began about 2.6 million years ago and we live in a warm period between glaciations of which there have been many. In the far north the ground is frozen, this is not normal outside of an ice age.
How long ago was it since the ice age?
The last Ice Age, known as the Last Glacial Maximum, peaked around 20,000 years ago. The ice began to retreat approximately 15,000 years ago, leading to the current interglacial period known as the Holocene. Thus, it has been roughly 15,000 years since the Ice Age began to wane.
When will the current ice age end?
The current ice age is known as the Quaternary Ice Age and is ongoing. We are currently in an interglacial period within this ice age, which began around 2.6 million years ago. It is difficult to predict when the current ice age will end as it is a natural geological process that operates on a much larger time scale than human activities.
Are we still going through an ice age?
Yes, we are currently in an ice age known as the Quaternary Ice Age, which began around 2.6 million years ago. Within this ice age, we are in an interglacial period, which is a warmer phase between glaciations.
Approximately when was the end of the last ice age?
The end of the last ice age, also known as a glacial period, was around 12,000 years ago. It began around 10,500 BCE.
