Question

If mankind became extinct,which breed of animal would rise to become rulers of the planet?

Answer 5

humans are STUPID and g*y! goooooo monkeys!!!

Answer 6

Bonobo Chimps. Closest animal to us.

Answer 7

Biologically speaking, bonobos are the closest you can get to being human without being human. Bonobos look more like humans than other apes, and display many behavioral similarities as well. Bonobos and people share 98.4% of the same genetic make-up (DNA). Bonobos and their cousins the chimpanzees, are more closely related genetically to us than they are to gorillas! But, like gorillas, they dwell only in the equatorial forests of central Africa, the cradle of humanity itself.

Bonobos are great apes, along with chimpanzees, orangutans, and gorillas. Because we share so many characteristics with these simian species, some scientists contend that humans should be classified as apes too.

Answer 14

Elephants or cheetahs

Answer 15

A new evolved verison of apes. but it would be like 10 million years before they can evolve again.

Answer 16

I have strong christian beliefs, and according to the book of revelation in the bible certain things are going to take place ultimately leading up to the renovation of this earth, and a new earth is going to be formed.  The only people that will be on the new earth are those you have accepted christ and have their names written in the lambs book of life.  Those who don't have their names written in the lambs book of life will be thrown into the lake of fire along with the Antichrist, and Satan, to suffer for all eternity.  Those who make it to the new earth will NEVER again experience death, pain, suffering, crying, or anything imperfect ever again.  So to answer your question...mankind will NOT be extinct before animals we're all going out at the same time.

Answer 20

Some kind of Bovidae, it depends on the continent:

In Africa, the African buffalo;

In North America, the American buffalo: before the 1800, there were millions of these animals in the prairies.

No matter the number of predators, buffaloes will  always outnumber the predators.

Gorillas, chimps, elephants, or whales. Or dogs. :) Humans are sooo stupid now. Why can't we go back to the way things were?

Answer 23

I would think the monkey only because they are both very smart & most like the humans :DDD Underwater it will probably be the shark or dolphin. I think most likely the dolphin because sharks are a bit scared of dolphins and the dolphins are the smartest underwater animal.
