Stone age people were illiterate and thus believed in superstition. Like many people in rural areas also.
Five types of dinosaurs are sauropods, carnosaurs, therapods, ceratopsians and hadrosaurs
All cave paintings were made by modern humans. They were usually made in caves that had no habitation and were hard to access, so they may have served a religious purpose. Usually the subjects of cave paintings were large animals such as bison, reindeer, horses, mammoths, etc. They also occasionally painted carnivores, such as the cave hyena.

This is unlikely to ever be definitively known, as the fossil record of early tetrapods is incomplete, and the vast gulf of time that separates us from them (360+ million years) compounds the problem. However, we do have some fossils, and from them it is clear that the earliest tetrapods had more than 5 toes on each foot (they were polydactylous). Acanthostega had 8, Ichthyostega had 7 and Tulerpeton had 6 - there seems to have been a trend of reduction in the number of toes over time in the tetrapod lineage. The early Anthracosaurs seem to have had 5 toes ancestrally, a trait which they might have passed on to their amniote descendants. However, it seems as though even the early tetrapods like Acanthostega were effectively five-toed, as their forward toes were combined into a single flesh-covered digit.
By the process of natural variation and selection by survival of the fittest.
Little foot was Apatosaurus or Brontosaurus. You can also call Apatosaurus Brontosaurus.
No species has ever been threatened to extinction due to regulated hunting. In fact, it was hunters who demanded the establishment of our wildlife resource agencies and demanded they set seasons and bag limits.
When you see a thriving population of deer, bear, and many other species- thank a hunter. They brought them back from the era of over exploitation, and keep their populations in balance with the animals available habitat.
there were 11 mass extintions.1 Precambrian(Paleozoic)2 Cambrian,3 Ordovician,4 Silurian,5 Devonian,6 Carboniferous,7 Permian.(Mesozoic)8 Triassic,9 jurassic,10 Cretaceous.(Cenozoic)11 tertiary, 0 quaternary/today.
It depends what your definition of reptile is. Turtles, Crocodiles are all "living fossils", because they were present in the mesozoic era. (of course not in the same shape or size, but in the same species). Some even say that birds are reptiles. (because latest fossils show us that some dinosaurs had feathers). So to answer your question, turtles, crocodiles and birds are all living reptiles from the mesozoic era.
Hope this helps.
for freshwater crocodiles(they like to live near to lakes, rivers., etc..,) and for salt-water crocodiles(they live in sea water and some salty lakes..)..
There are a number of things that the prehistoric man did. Fishing, hunting and gathering were the main activities they engaged in.
Animals such as PROCOPTODON,DIPROTODON,TOXODON,MAMMUTHUS,DEINOTHERIUM,COELODONTA lived in the quaternary period.Plants such as BIRCH,SWEETGUM lived in the quaternary period, as well as the plants and animals you see around you.
This ancient species probably ate aquatic vegetation it scraped from swamps or lakes with its shovel like tusks.
Mammoths evolved 5 million years ago, during the end of the Neogene Period. They died out during the Quaternary Period, starting 10,000 years ago, with a few dwarf types surviving until 4,500 years ago.
The pets cavemen had are either unknown or extinct. What I have heard is that those pets were NOT dinosaurs, because dinosaurs were living billions of years before there was anything even remotely similar to a human.
The definition of 'pre-historic' assumes that the period was before written records. Obviously easily satisfied for the fossil collectors.
Archaeology concerns itself with the early history of mankind (and other life forms) and attention is usually paid to settlement regions, middens and waste sites, early tool forms and so on. So a knowledge of the food species (botany and zoology) and some knowledge of tool working techniques. e.g. How did they make that ochre paint for the walls.
Recent work in the Pacific in studying the common root of (non-written) languages has helped identify the migration patterns throughout that region.
A whale's song travels faster than a bird's chirp. This is because a whale's song travels through water, where sound moves much faster than it does in air.
Well, it started back awhile ago. When the people that sailed the water did not want people to trade over the sea, they told settlers to not go near the water, for fear of being eaten by something or the big waters that tip and sink ships. Because of this, hardly anyone wanted to fish out into open seas. So, the sharks actually had a chance to grow their full body length. But, now, since so many people around the world are fishing and trapping, the sharks don't have a chance to reach that maximum length. Although, more than 90% of our oceans are unexplored.
Animals in the ocean that lived in the Cenozoic period were sponges, coral, starfish, sea urchens, and sand dollars were common as well as brachiopods and cephalopods which were rare. Even oysters, mussels, and snails lived through out the period. Crabs and barnacles were common as well. On land, spiders, centipedes, scorpions, and insects, including butterflies, moths, bees, wasps, ants, beetles, and many others thrived during the Cenozoic era as well.
Answer
No one can say with absolute certainty what color the megalodon was. It is assumed that it followed the same pattern as all comparable animals, with a darker back and a paler belly.
Answer
For hunting adaptations. When prey is above the Megalodon, its darkish blue color blends in with the depths and colors of the ocean. When prey is under the Megalodon, the white underbelly blends in the the bright top of the water, where the sun shines down.
Well as the ice age ended it got warmer which is one factor and also just like many other extinct animals they were hunted by cavemen in various way's such as dropping large boulders onto them when they lure them into to tight gaps.
