If you could bring back one extinct animal, what would it be? And explain why.

I would bring back a Quagga 'cause they look so cool. A horse and zebra mixed.

Now that's scary.

Like the dinosaurs I wouldn't want to bring Megalodons back since they'd be very damaging to the food chain. They prey on whales, dolphins, porpoises, manatees, seals etc. Number of these species could dwindle significantly.

Personally, I am happier that the ocean is without that menace.

biggest Carnivore* ever.


Biggest carnivorous fish.

who the hell or what the hell is a Cthulhu anyways? Some kind of retard probably...

Giant Kangaroos. They grew to the size of a rhino on average. But that would be kinda scary. :P

I'd bring back an Elvis Presley. They had huge impacts on the music world in the 20th century, but they went extinct in the 70's. Or so is believed...

I would bring back the thylacine. I believe it was in the wolf family. Worlds largest carnivorous marsupial of modern times.

Please ignore that sentence. I though it was, but then I looked it up and discovered it wasn't and forgot to delete that sentence.

no it was the biggest carnivore ever, it was estimated to weigh in at over 47 tons with the 6 inch tooth. but when they found that tooth thats like 2 feet long, they recalculated it to over 100 tons.

besides, the second largest carnivore was calculated to be the Spinosaurus, weighing in at only 8 tons at the most.

heres a link.

ugh once again i forgot to do some research...
yes it was the largest at over 100 tons, yet the spinosaurus wasnt second.

i forgot of the carnivorous whales, which ruled the oceans until the ocean currents changed and drove them to extinction, leaving only the ones that ate kril like blue whales. thus gave rise to the megalodon, which went extinct for reasons i dont know, but i hope it stays extinct.

but like i also said earlier, we've only covered about 2% of our oceans with exploration, the megalodon could still be out there in the depths of the abyss....
