Allosaurus was a two-legged, meat eating dinosaur that was about 25 feet long. They lived about 145 million years ago. Other dinosaurs that lived at the same time include Stegosaurus, Diplodocus, Brachiosaurus, etc.
No. The Mammoth tank is from the Command and Conquer video game. I can find no legitimate reference that one was ever built by any country in the real world. Several years ago I saw an image of a Mammoth tank in a computer game magazine, but it was a computer image and not a photo of a real tank. * The 95-ton T-28 super heavy tank developed for the US Army in the 1940's had no turret, but it did have four tracks. Only two T-28s were built and neither was used in combat. * The German Panzer Mark VIII had a turret and two very wide tracks, looking like a Tiger II on steroids, and it weighed 188 tons. It was called the Maus (Mouse), but the original name was Mammut (Mammoth). 150 were ordered, but only two were made operational.

What is the Sixth Extinction Theory?
According to theory, the extinction started when humans began to disperse across the globe about 100,000 years ago. As population increased, the need for food also increased. As a result people began using agriculture. While humans move across the earth as predators, other species become their prey. The Sixth Extinction Theory says that while people evolve, the world is dying- because our evolution is draining the world's resources. Therefore, the result is that humans are slowly destroying the Earth and we are the cause of The Sixth Extinction.

What are the 8 human activities responsible for extinction of animals and birds?
There have been several extinction events in the Earth's history. Scientists have determined (using data determined from the Earth itself and found using the latest equipment we have been able to manufacture) that some of the major extinction events have been caused by large asteroids colliding with the Earth.
When a large asteroid collides with the planet, the dust and water vapor raised by the collision can occlude the sunlight from reaching the planet. When this happens, the vegetal food (plants) are the first to die. If the occlusion lasts long enough from a major strike, then the animals who depended on that food, dies out as well. Then the animals who preyed on those animals will die out.
Another type of extinction event MAY have happened much more recently in our planet's history.
Scientists have found that as the last ice age was ending, dust from possibly the Sahara desert was blown into the atmosphere, occluding the sun again, causing widespread death to major flora and fauna about 11,000 years ago. Some parts of North America was buried in up to 800 feet of new soil and debris which sifted down on the continent. Animals such as the Woolly Mammoth and the Saber Tooth Cat could have been some of the most recent animal extinctions caused by natural occurrences on the planet.
