Extinct Animals

well there are many ways they have had gotten extinct some say it was a change in climate ( ice age) or it could have been a meteor scientist are still arguing to answer this question ( i personaly think that it was a change in climate because it explains all those furry critters like the mamonth plus if a metor hit it would maybe cause the earth's orbit to change a little yes i know i smart smart ) :) :)

I dont believe either of those, but, maybe they just died? o.O

The international groups and nations that publish lists of plants and animals in peril and who monitor and track the numbers of animals in a species for species protection, each have their own criteria for listing each species and define the statuses under which they are listed. Their criteria and definition varies between the different lists and statuses. More information is available on the methodology of listing endangered species at the sites linked below in the related links section.

Although there were sharks in the Mesozoic Era, Carcharodon megalodon was not one of them. C. megalodon lived during the Neogene Period, 40 million years after the dinosaurs went extinct.

One example of a dinosaur with 12 letters in its name is "Stegosaurus." Stegosaurus is a herbivorous dinosaur known for its distinctive plates along its back and spikes on its tail. This dinosaur lived during the Late Jurassic period, around 155 to 150 million years ago.

Iguanodon lived in Europe between 126 and 125 million years ago. At this time, Europe was tropical to subtropical and much of it was covered by shallow seas. The islands that were not flooded were relatively dry and covered in forests of conifers, cycads, ferns, horsetails, and ginkgos.

The animal doesn't necessarily have to be "missing" however the numbers will be scarce and its habitat affected by either natural or human activity for the species to be considered endangered. For the species to be considered extinct, there would have to be no more evidence to prove the animal's existance.

A baby alligator is called a hatch-ling. This is a common name used among most reptiles that give birth by laying eggs. There is no specific name for the baby of an alligator.

A group of young alligators is called a pod.

To bite into prey or bite leaves, dinosaurs needed teeth. The T. Rex had the biggest teeth of all dinosaurs to deliver a killing bite to its prey. The sauropods had front teeth but no back teeth. The spinosaur adapted to eating fish and so had a mouth like crocodiles.

the were hunted and killed for meat and sport until they were gone

Well, to start, we can buy cans with the label "dolphin safe" on the side, and you can cut up can loops so the dolphins don't get there heads caught in it.

or/and we can recycle reuse and join save the dolphins, beside that you can go on a site called savethedolphins.org and sign their petition to help save the dolphins from being slaughtered.

You have to seek out a organization near you that looks after dolphins and donate large sums of money to them. It will mean you wont have a big bank account but you will feel happy and contened! So go out save the dolphins and go help the world!

It lived from 370,000 to 10,000 years ago but there are some signs of cave lions living around 1200 A.D.

Since Dino's have been extinct fOr over 1 million years, scientists have almost proved dinosaurs will not ever come back since they have left no DNA

You have to wait 6 days until it hatches, once it hatches you can walk it. After 20 days it will be able to dance, day 30 it can fly, on day 50, your pet dragon will be able to breathe fire.

It would throw it out of balance

It does not respond to changes,does not need air,food and water.It does not die

Basically almost all African Savanna animals are endangered. Especially elephants and rhinos because of their ivory( a.k.a white gold) but others are endangered due to people settling on their home. Lions are threatened because of fear of attack.

Up to 16 feet long

It lived in Russia 100,000 mya to10,000 years ago

Wooly mammoths were roughly the same sizes as modern elephants, males averaging 9 to 11 feet tall, and females reaching up to 8 or 9ft.

The mammoth were monstrous at birth, weighing in at 200lb, and growing up to be a massive 6-7 ton creature. The physical structures and adaptations of the woolly mammoth was it's greatest asset in the cold environment during the ice age. Covered in longer hairs on the outer

layer, and short guard hairs closer to the body, heat loss wasn't a problem, it also had shorter ears than the modern African element that it resembles, in order to prevent frostbite. Lastly, the mammoth had large tusks, which were replaced six times throughout their lifetime, and used these tusks for working with objects, fighting prey and other mammoths, and foraging.

The wooly mammoth could be said to be the cause of most of the problems in modern society, and my everyday life, as the mammoths thrived mainly in Eurasia, henceforth, the mammoths were hunted in by Euro-Asian communities. These communities thrived due to the mammoth, and continued to due so, these communities thrived for generations, and these generations gave birth to some of the most treacherous men in world history (e.g Hitler), men who caused wars my relatives fought in, or faced the repercussions from. Because my family basically fought against the mammoths that caused the downfall of modern society, i am where i stand today. I am free because the woolly mammoths are extinct

Habitat and Niche

Mammuthus Primigenius

SEAHORSES

The primary habitat in which the Woolly Mammoth resided in was the Arctic Tundra, across the northern parts of Eurasia and Northern America

During the winter it is very cold and dark, with the average temperature around −28 °C (−18 °F), sometimes dipping as low as −50 °C (−58 °F).

Generally daytime temperatures during the summer rise to about 12 °C (54 °F) but can often drop to 3 °C (37 °F) or even below freezing.

The specific niche of the mammoth was very similar to that of a modern elephant.....just colder.....hence the wool......it ate the sparse vegetation found throughout the tundra, grass and sedge. As a herbivore, it's role in nature was a primary producer, a large source of meat for predators.

WOOLLY MAMMOTHS:EXTINCT

Jalen Faulkner's joke

The woolly mammoth started to die out late in Pleistocene epoch.

At first, it was said the cause of death is either the vast climate change, humans, or a mix of both.

The idea that climate lead to their death has been ruled however due to the fact that the species was alive around 1700 B.C, at that the point had already changed climate significantly since the last ice age, therefore scientist believe that mammoths were either overhunted or died by disease

They were over-hunted due to the fact that they were such a large supply of meat and their fur was extremely useful.

Supposedly, the woolly mammoth still rooms the sparse and rarely inhabited taigas of Alaska and Russia. In the 19th century, Russian tribesmen reported seeing, "large furry creatures, the size of elephants."

much wooly

very mammoth

such tusks

wow

Adult woolly mammoths were so large that they had few predators. Predators of adult woolly mammoths would have been prehistoric humans and Neanderthals, and possibly Eurasian cave lions and Homotherium (a type of saber-toothed cat). Juveniles and calves would definitely have been hunted by all of the above predators as well as by cave hyenas, which would not have been able to kill an adult mammoth.
