Are crocadiels endangerd?
There are several different species of crocodile, the estuarine or salt water croc, have seen their numbers increase over the last 30 years or so due to several breeding programs. However, other species do not fare so well and numbers are reducing. Habitat loss to human beings is a large factor in this.
Do penguins live in large groups?
Yes, penguins typically live in large groups called colonies. These colonies can vary in size and can range from just a few dozen penguins to thousands of individuals, depending on the species and nesting location. Penguins rely on strength in numbers for protection from predators and to stay warm in cold climates.

Yes , species with very small populations are at the verge of extinction as compared to large population .
What does it mean to kill wild animals in large numbers?
Killing wild animals in large numbers can disrupt ecosystems, leading to imbalances in natural habitats and potentially causing extinctions of certain species. It can also affect the food chain and biodiversity, impacting the overall health of the environment. Additionally, mass killings of wild animals can have ethical implications and raise concerns about conservation efforts.
When was the gray wolf put on the endangered species list?

What is a brief period of time in which large numbers of species die out and disappear?
A brief period of time in which large numbers of species die out and disappear is known as a mass extinction event. These events have occurred five times in Earth's history, with the most well-known being the extinction of the dinosaurs at the end of the Cretaceous period.
What has occurred when larte numbers of species die out over a short period of time?
When large numbers of species die out over a short period of time, it is referred to as a mass extinction event. These events are typically caused by major environmental changes, such as asteroid impacts, volcanic eruptions, or rapid climate change, that disrupt ecosystems and lead to widespread species loss. Mass extinctions have occurred several times in Earth's history, the most famous being the one that wiped out the dinosaurs around 66 million years ago.
When did large numbers of fossils first appear in the geologic record?
Large numbers of fossils begin to appear around 530 million years ago. It is called the Cambrian Explosion, because it occurred in the Cambrian period. The Cambrian period was the first part of the Paleozoic era.

What is a mass extinction?
A mass extinction is an event in which a substantial proportion of Earth's species become extinct in a relatively short period of time, which disrupts the balance of ecosystems. There have been several mass extinctions throughout Earth's history, with the most well-known being the one that wiped out the dinosaurs about 65 million years ago. These events are often caused by major environmental changes or catastrophic events.
