Apparently, the Great Dying, 250 million years ago, the greatest mass extinction ever on Earth killing 90% of animals and plants, due to " With only 10 percent of plants and animals surviving the extinction event triggered by global warming, acid rain, ocean acidification and ocean anoxia, there has been a longstanding debate about how long it took life on Earth to recover from the cataclysm, scientists said. http://www.upi.com/Science_News/201...from-mass-extinction-seen/UPI-31201338325313/ It took ten million years to recover, reseting groups of animals and evolution basically.
Too bad scientists change their minds every 5 minutes and even when they don't they can never agree. They'll probably have a completely different theory in a few years.
13. But he's probably more of an expert on this one than I am, since they stop bothering to teach you what a fossil is in grade school.
No, literally everyone loves dinosaurs. Even you, Mr. Dinosaur Avatar. Of course, who couldn't? They're fucking awesome.
True, but the obsession over them starts at a young age, which is when most kids start looking up random shit about them.
Your avatar, I've never really paid close attention to it and I always thought it was a sheep, or a ram wearing sun glasses.
It's not a very good picture in all honesty. It's low quality and lack of depth are what lead me to believe it was a sheep.
10 million years seems probably. I mean, what else are organisms going to do when their natural predator is extinct. Eat and reproduce.
I read somewhere we can expect massive animals walking around Earth once again in 10 million years. I doubt that'll happen as long as humans are alive, though.
