What are the possible solutions to prevent jaguars extinction?

Some possible solutions to prevent jaguar extinction include protecting their habitats from deforestation, establishing conservation programs to reduce human-wildlife conflict, enforcing laws against poaching and illegal wildlife trade, and promoting sustainable land use practices that benefit both jaguars and local communities. Collaborative efforts between governments, conservation organizations, and local communities are crucial for the long-term survival of jaguars.


What affect do humans have on speciation?

As part of the environment of other organisms humans can have great effects on speciation. Especially adaptive radiation. As we contribute heavily to the extinction of some species other species flow into those open niches and radiate outwards to possible speciation.


How many different dinasors were there?

We don't know exactly how many, possible thousands.


What contribution did Robert Scott make to biology?

Captain Scott's mate, Dr Wilson made the most contributions to biology, since that was Dr Wilson's job. (Captain Scott's job was to lead the expedition, and to captain the ship.) Dr Wilson wanted to prove that penguins were descendants of dinosaurs, based on the penguin feather patterns. As well, Dr Wilson provided the best artistic renderings of the animals that visited the local beaches during breeding season: penguins and seals.

How does the theory of asteroid impact relate to the extinction of Dinosaurs?

I does not. The asteroid would of had to knock out the entire earth for that to happen. If you think of the facts it is just not possible.


What will probably be without the dinosaurs extinct?

For one thing, humans wouldn't exist. If the dinosaurs had survived, the small mammals that would have eventually evolved into humans wouldn't have had the chance. Most large mammals - lions, elephants, moose, kangaroos, etc. - wouldn't have had the chance to evolve either. All the big, widespread species would be reptiles or birds.


Could mass extiction have been caused by an asteroid?

It has been speculated that the mass extinction of dinosaurs was caused by an asteriod, however there is not enough evidence collected to support this. It is still argued possible though.


Is it possible to download the spore final dinosaurs?

yes, it is possible to download the spore final dinosaurs


How many years ago was the largest mass extinction?

The most extreme that we are aware of was the Permian Extinction about 252 million years ago, in which 95% of all life was killed. The cause is still unknown, although it is possible that this was an impact event.


Is it possible the asteroid that destroyed the dinosaurs has any connection with the existence of humans?

An asteroid did NOT destroy the dinosaurs. A flood did. Read the Bible. :) The flood was the one who killed the dinosaurs, but Noah took small dinosaurs (e.g lizards, crocodiles).


What is the asteroid that hit planet earth resulting to the extinction of dinosaurs 65 million years ago million years ago?

nobody really knows. Anything could have happened to that rock in 65.5 million years. Remember that there are also other theories about the K-T extinction event, though, an asteroid impact is by far most widely believed. If it where possible to find that particular rock, it would be a fact, not a theory.


The extiction of the dinosaurs made possible the expansion and rise of what other class of animals?

The extiction of the dinosaurs made possible the expansion and rise of mammals.


Which is a possible explanation for mass extinction?

Global whining


Can you describe condition that makes it possible for a species to undergo adaptive radiation?

When the dinosaurs went extinct the mammals that were living alongside the dinosaurs underwent massive adaptive radiation. Large extinction events can give rise to niche openings for species that go through the extinction event.


Did dinosaurs go inside the earth's core?

No it is not possible.


Can Dinosaurs stay in a reptile house?

Yes it would be possible for dinosaurs to be in a reptile house if they were still alive. I guess the bones could be in a reptile house but no real dinosaurs.
