Indian and African in the order the question was asked. I am not an expert here though.
What are the theories of dinosaur extinction?
I'd have to say say meteorites or earthquakes but my theory is a plant infection. If this did happen the Herbivores would die and the Carnivores ate the dead carcasses that were infected and they died. There is also a theory that they didn't die, they evolved.
When did the smilodon go extinct?
Also called the Saber-toothed-cat, it lived approximately 2.5million to 10,000 years ago. That's as specific as anyone can get, sorry.
Edit: It also depends on which specific Smilodon species. Each is listed below.
Smilodon gracilis: 2,500,000 to 500,000 years ago.
Smilodon fatalis: 1,600,000 to 10,000 years ago.
Smilodon populator: 1,000,000 to 10,000 years ago.

What are the effects of introduced species into Australia?
A successful introduced species eradication scheme is one that, once the intro. species has "done it's job" then it dies because there is no more pest/ feral organisms for it to survive on. However, some schemes are unsuccessful and the introduced species becomes a pest, a good example of this in Australia is the well known cane toad, some of the effects this organism has had on the Australian environment is that, because the toads are in fact poisonous, because of their warts, their poison has killed alot of Australia's natural, carnivorous, species, such as the chuditch, and also household pets. The toad also takes over some environments and drives out other species that live there.
Another is the magnificent brumbies, they were once farm horses for the migrants from England, but broke free and became "feral" (once domesticated) these horses also drive out other organisms not on purpose, but because of natural competition for food. They are also the main culprit for soil erosion on the hills due to their galloping along in big herds, this obviously will have a huge impact on the "compactiveness" of the soil.
How can you prevent green turtles becoming extinct?
The first thing we can all do as a nation, is to stop using turtles as lamp shades. Its discusting and gross how people do this. In my opinion, if we didn't do that, there would be more and more leatherbacks here on Earth. If we had more leatherbacks, our national dept would deeply decrease.
It lived in Mongolia and China.
( description of habitat)The Woodlands in Western Asia were much different millions of years ago during the Cretaceous period. For example temperatures start to rise during the Cretaceous period making the Woodlands in Western Asia much warmer than they are today. Also multiple flowering plants started to grow during this period. Red wood trees were plentiful in the area at this time. There were plenty of watering holes and there was often a river or stream nearby . Rocks and under Bush littered the forest floor.
What caused the extinction moa bird?
Birds can become extinct for a variety of different reasons. Human hunting, loss of habitat resulting in a decrease in food, or severe climate events can lead to extinction.
Can you breed saber-toothed tigers?
No, they have live babies in their womb, because they're mammals like all tigers.
Where in the world can the orangutan be found?
It is found only in the lowland swamp forests of Borneo and Sumatra but originally in the tropical forests of South Asia as well.

Which is the correct order of the typical sequence of events for fossilization?
The typical sequence or order of fossilization is when a plant or animal dies parts are preserved by freezing, mummification, distillation, or permineralization.
How did the saber tooth adapt?
The saber-toothed cat did a good job of adapting at first, but obviously didn't succeed in the long run since they are extinct today. They had to adapt to killing without the use of their famous long fangs. If the teeth broke, they never grew back. Saber-toothed cats killed their prey by suffocating them as they laid on top of them.
What has caused a recent increase in the rate of extinction?
The rapidity in the utilization of natural resources is the main cause of increase in the rate of extinction of plant and animal species. More and more land mass and water bodies are facing this threat due to over-exploitation of resources.
Was the dodo bird in competition with other species?
Small mammals and small birds could compete with the Dodo for food.
While carnivores would kill the for food.
Woolly mammoth bones had been seen and even traded by the native Siberians for thousands of years before Europeans heard of them. However, the Siberian people believed that the bones came from giant moles. When Europeans heard of the bones, they thought that they came from giants or behemothes.
Hans Sloane, a British scientist, discovered that the bones came from elephants when he was studying a mammoth tooth in 1728. He believed that the elephant bones were carried there in the Biblical Great Flood, or that Siberia had previously been much warmer.
In 1796, French scientist Georges Cuvierer determined that the mammoth wasn't a modern elephant, and that instead, it was an extinct species (extinction wasn't a highly accepted concept at the time). In 1828, Joshua Brooks realized that mammoths belonged to an extinct genus, and gave them the woolly mammoth its current scientific name, Mammuthus primigenius.
Why are animals that only eat one thing in danger of being extinct?
Most likely because if the one item they eat gets extinct, then most likely, they will starve to death.
How big was the eye of the megalodon?
As Big as your head to as big as a basket ball which is larger than your head most of the time.
Why did the saber tooth become extinct?
Nobody is certain why the saber toothed cats died out. They probably became extinct, however, because many of the large prey animals that saber toothed cats depended on died out. Theories for why this happened include climate change, overhunting by humans, and human induced diseases.
Can the speed of a change in the environment might affect whether or not a species becomes extinct?
If the species environment is not the way the species needs it to survive then the species will become extinct. for example, if doesn't have any trees, then it cant survive.
The Quagga is an extinct animal that lived in Africa and is much like the zebra but only has stripes on its hindquarters. Another animal similar too the Quagga is an Okapi and is not extinct but there are few left in the wild. Most Okapi are in captivity.
When did the Anomalocaris become extinct?
Anomalocaris Canadensis, which means "unlike the other shrimp, from Canada", became extinct for the same reason many other Cambrian Era species did, glaciers. These moving glaciers reduced the temperature and amount of air in the shallow sea. This contributed to a mass extinction.

Why did the andrewsarchus go extinct?
andrewsarchus might have gone extinct during the central Asian extinction caused by the formation of the Himalaya Mountains 40 million tears ago or because of Habitat loss maybe Global warming and Climate change

How long does a Megalodon live?
Nobody will ever know because its already extinct but I'd say around 150 years.
