Extinct Animals

The marsupial lion cannot be found anywhere any longer. It became extinct many thousands of years ago,but it used to be found in Australia.

For more information about the marsupial lion, see the related links.

No extinction is as well documented as that of the New Zealand Moa (pronounced mo-ah). It was a large flightless bird of the order Dinornithiformes. Weighing up to 250Kg and 2.5 metres high, it was hunted to extinction by the Maoris by about 400 years ago. The Moa occupied the ecological niche in New Zealand of the antelope, rhinoceros and kangaroo and lived in habitats from forest to alpine tundra.

The cave lion (Panthera spelea) ancestors were the Panthera Leo fossilis, which inhabited Europe about 700,000 years ago. There are some indications the cave lion may have existed as recently as 2,000 years ago in the Balkans.

The Bali tigers preyed upon most mammals that they found around them including rodents and small primates

Yes, mammoths were real, but thousands of years ago after the dinosaurs lived.

Functional extinction means that there are not enough live animals (or animal protoplasm) of a certain species for the species to breed and survive.

a small creature that looks like a cat but also has similar features to a rat, such as big teeth and it carries horrible diseases. It has a long thin tail and was made extinct by the dodo's (ate them all)

Actually, an Elkryn is somewhat very similar to the modern day Elk, but was almost double it's size and broader in muscle. It lived in the great plains of North America and was hunted by long-fangs, Wolves and early humans.

The scientific name of the giant isopod is Bathynomus giganteus

Cesar Estrada Chavez was a famous labor leader from Yuma, Arizona. Cochise and Geronimo were famous Apache Chiefs from the Arizona Territory. Senator Barry Goldwater was from Phoenix, Arizona.

Halibut can grow to be anywhere from 20 inches in length to about 60 inches in length. They weigh between 3 and 100 pounds.

Short faced bears died out about 10,000 years ago. When they did exist, they lived in North America.

people love unicorns so much because they are magical creatures and very beatiful

The Bornean, Balinese and the tiger from Java. I got that from 'Wikipaedia'

maybe it's because it's global warming. scientists dont know why they became extinct

No they didn't have wings, which is why they are flightless.

The prey species of the river dolphin, such as fish and shrimps, would suddenly boom and dominate the ecosystem as there would be no predator keeping their populations in check. Whatever those prey species feed on would suddenly decrease as there would be more organisms feeding of it. When one species becomes extinct, it can cause other species to also become extinct. However hopefully the ecosystem returns to an equilibrium eventually.

Hope this helps!

Sadly, almost too many to count. Unbelievably, about 30-100 different animals species, including insects, birds, mammals, and amphibians become extinct every single day!This is due to loss of habitat loss and invasion by humans. if you count how many animal species have died just within the last 10 years, it makes a list much to large to put down.

Koalas are specialist feeders, living in eucalyptus trees and eating only a few types of gum leaves from which they get all nutrients and water requirements. They also occasionally eat the gum tree blossoms.

While there are hundreds of different eucalyptus species in Australia, koalas eat from only about 60 of the species, consuming about half a kilogram of eucalyptus leaves every day. Koalas will not eat all types of eucalyptus, feeding on just 14 species as their primary food source, specifically, the subgenus Symphyomyrphus.

Specialist species are often more prone to extinction because they rely on such a limited range of food. However, in the case of the koala, this is not what may eventually lead to their extinction. Dogs and cars pose a far greater threat, as koalas walk along the ground to travel between trees in their home range, and this is when they are at their most vulnerable.

No, Mastodons were alive from the late Miocene/early Pliocene until around the end of the Pleistocene, 10,500 years ago give or take. There is nearly 60 million years of time between the extinction of the dinosaurs and the rise of the Mastodon.

No they are quite distinct, though they were both probably omnivorous the Cave bear (Ursus spelaeus )probably tended more toward vegetarianism while the short face (of the genus Arctodus) lent more toward a carnivorous diet. The cave bear was a Eurasian species, whereas Arctodus' origins are in North America. Physically they would have appeared very different, the Cave bear is related to and was similar in size to large examples of modern Brown bears, and would have appeared similar. Whereas the Short face has only one extant relative the South American Spectacled bear, and was larger in size, closer to and possibly exceeding that of the largest Polar bears today, though more lightly built and with longer legs. More recent interpretations of the fossil evidence have led to it often being viewed as a 'super scavenger', rather than 'super predator'.
