Extinct Animals

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.

The Green Snake, the Green Sea Turtle, the Great Blue Heron and the Grey Fox.

yes

Their tusks are teeth; the second set of incisors become the tusks. They are used for digging for food, for fighting during mating season, and for defense against predators.

No.

The largest carnivorous dinosaur discovered so far is the Spinosaurus.

They are not. There population is doing just fine.

Thylacinus cynocephalus is also referred to as the Tasmanian tiger or Tasmanian wolf.

A baby thylacine was called a joey. All marsupial young are called joeys.

In 2005, the Australian Museum attempted to clone the Thylacine, but the attempt was abandoned due to the lack of necessary equipment and facilities. At this stage, it is not considered viable to make any new attempts, but there may be better technology for another experiment in the future.

Officially, none.

There have been no confirmed sightings of the Thylacine, or Tasmanian Tiger, since the last one died in Hobart Zoo in September 1936.

"Tasmanian wolf" is a nickname for the now extinct Thylacine, or Tasmanian tiger. When they were alive, prior to the 1930s, the longest known life span of a thylacine in captivity was eight and a half years.

The Tasmanian Tiger, properly called the Thylacine, was at the top of the food chain, and thus did not have predators. (Young Thylacines could be subject to predation by Tasmanian Devils and birds of prey.) However, once a bounty was placed on them amid fears that they were a threat to livestock, they gained a new predator - Man.

No. Scientific and fossil evidence indicates the Tasmanian tiger, or Thylacine, was a solitary animal that lived and hunted alone.Suggestions have been made that the Thylacine hunted in packs for larger prey, but this is only a theory.

This is subject to some debate. Generally, most authorities consider the Tasmanian tiger extinct, but there are persistent unconfirmed reports of sightings, both in Tasmania and in nearby parts of the Australian mainland.

This animal is also known as the Tasmanian wolf, or the thylacine. On the news, its said that the Tasmanian tiger is extinct many years ago. But the scientist found a Tasmanian tiger. They said that this is the first time an animal that is extinct has come back to life.

__________

The Thylacine (also known as the Tasmanian Tiger and Tasmanian Wolf), became extinct in the 20th century. The last known specimen died in the Hobart Zoo in 1936.

There is highly disputed evidence that a very small number may yet still exist in the Tasmanian wilderness, but nobody has seen, photographed or trapped one.

None that I know of, there have been some due to stupidity or for money, but not because of hunting.
