Extinct Species????

Question

Do you think more will become history.Who will be the next globally.Who will become history in the USA.Do you think this is just a "natural cycle" or phase in global progression.

Answer 1

According to some genetic researchers, mankind may go extinct in this century from genetic disorders. With genetic disorders and diseases ever increasing---from 1400 to 12,000 in the 33 years from 1966 to 1999 and projected to increase further based on population and mutation studies.

Quote--

"By 2031, it is estimated (R2 = 0.995) there will be 100,000 human genetic disorders and by 2096 1,000,000 (see Figure 3). “At least one clinical disorder has been related to 1,318 of the mapped loci (roughly 30%)” (McKusick, 1998, Vol. 1, xiii - xviii). That suggests genetic disorder saturation of each locus by 2031 and supersaturation by 2096. These data confirm human devolution and suggest imminent permanent genetic extinction in this century."

"Devolution" is not a scientific term and should rather be called or understood to mean genetic degradation.

Answer 2

Species go extinct and new species are found.  It is just a natural cycle.

Answer 3

In Australia I think that the next known species to become extinct may be the Tasmanian Devil. There are endangered and at the moment they have a disease that is spreading through all the ones that are in captivity.

Answer 4

It is not a natural cycle when humans are destroying the habitat for our own exploitation such as coffee and palm oil plantations.

4 adult  mountain gorillas were murdered last month with  automatic weapons in the Congo.

There are only 750 left and NONE are in zoos.

It is not a natural cycle to use automatic weapons

Frogs and amphibians around the world are crashing due to global warming which has made them sensitive to viruses. Honey bees and other insects which are links in the chain of life are disappearing and the impact could/ will be catastrophic.

Answer 5

species go extinct indeed its a natural phenomenon.

this phenomenon does not prove to be true every time when a animal is extinct.

humans play a vital role in extinction of species.

extinction is a natural process, this process gradually takes place with time but it should not be disturbed by unnecessary killing by humans.

species become extinct as part of natural phenomenon called "survival of the fittest". animals adapt to changing conditions & develop different characterstics accordingly. then the species which has not developed the characterstics become extinct & the future will continue with the new characterstics.

if humans does not stop killing animals, many will go extinct in the future.

there are many species in the verge of extinction. some of them are

tigers

asiatic lion

rhinos

tasmanian devils

and so on.

there are many species that are on the verge of extinction.

Answer 6

There are species that go extinct nearly every day.  There are also new species being discovered at about the same pace.  This is the normal cycle of nature and humans can not prevent the process from continuing.  

Humans do play a role in this process.  Elimination of natural habitats, intentional over-killing of species for pelts or food, and killing of species from use of chemicals have all contributed to the early demise of species.

Answer 7

extinction of species is just a natural phenomenon as part of "survival of the fittest"and "evolution by natural selection".

If any species collectively cannot evolve for what ever reasons, to tackle the adverse environmental conditions, it is bound to become extinct. The corollary is over-specialsised species also become prone to extinction.
