It all depends on humankind. \n\nFirst, about cats and dogs: The best bet would be that cats and dogs will exist as long as humanity lives, maybe a few tens of millions of years longer.\n\nSecond, what will happen next? New clases of animals appear and spread when there is a new type of habitat for them. Either because it is unoccupied (it happened with coming from ocean to land), or because old occupants are dead or less adapted to cope with changed conditions on Earth (that happened with dinosaurs and mammals that took over from them).\n\nRight now, life is more or less everywhere on Earth. So new animals - whatever they will be - will take over from existing mammals and birds only if humankind changes Earth enough, or destroys their competitors.\nChances are that animals able to survive humans (rodents, for example) will be the ancestors of the new classes of animals. \nHowever, if humankind stays on track, WE will create new animals, and choose how they will look like. Alternatively, if humans take animals to other planets where they can survive, there is a chance for new kinds of animals evolving there.

cows pigs goats sheep horses dogs and cats give birth to live young and feed them on milk. They are mammals\n\nchickens ducks geese turkeys lay eggs . They are birds.

I would say C. The animals that died were weaker than the animals that survived. Their deaths might have occured because they did not possess the genes that enabled them to survive. The wildebeests that survived had adaptations that allowed them to better adapt to the environment.\n\nHowever, it could also be B. Perhaps the animals that died were just old and died of natural causes.\n\nIn my opinion, this question is poorly worded.

Nope what about about the lions tigers & bears & even fish kills other animals for food! Think about that.

Most dinosaurs are extinct. The rest just got smaller & more adaptable. All reptiles are descendants from dinosaurs. Crocodiles, Alligators, lizards, snakes, turtles, tortoises, Komodo Dragons are "living" dinosaurs.\nNot counting the stuff that lives in interior (unexplored) africa and the amazon rain forest, and the loch ness monster, which is a pleiosaur or something.\n\nDinosaurs died out a while back. A huge meteor smacked into earth- you can see the impact crater from the hit in Arizona or Russia- the evidence is that earth takes a world-killer on the chin once every 10,000 years or so- which means we're about due for another one. \nThe meteor impact threw up a huge amount of ash and dirt- like when a volcano blows, or after an atomic weapon is used, and blocked out the sun's heat from earth, what they call "nuclear winter". The earth cooled and went into an ice age until all the dust and ash had settled back down from the atmosphere. Since reptiles & dinosaurs & dragons are all cold blooded, they went into hibernation and most died off. Only the smallest and most adaptable survived.\n\nIf it hadn't been for this, mammals would never have evolved into higher life forms, because we kept getting eaten by dinosaurs and dragons.

Ah, that's adorable! \n\nYou know, no Christian has ever told me what happens to animals after they die. If they do go to heaven, why? How were they judged? Are there especially pious gorillas or tarantulas?\n\nUntil there is unanimous agreement among Christians on what exactly Hell is (because every Christian I've talked has said something different) I'm inclined to believe only in its, let's say, "improbability". It follows that it's highly improbable that those penguins would go to Hell.

Well, if you are asking in terms of god, the Bible says he created the beasts for man to rule over.  In terms of people, certainly they provide us with a source of food, but they also provide plant life with a much needed source of energy.  If all animals died off, it seems likely that humans would die off as well, most likely from disease rather than a lack of food.  If you are going to ask why god created animals, you may as well ask why he or she created plants or planets, or anything else.  Who knows?

Pets, yes.  My cats are very distressed by the current administration.  The dead, no.  You've seen what happens when zombies get all uppity.

I think they will. But humans will all (or mostly) be extinct by then. There's the controversial theory that robots evolve over time and they technically can't die, because they were never alive. So even if humans killed each other off or in some other way became extinct, robots would still be around. And if the evolving theory is true, they will be able to function on there own, as they see fit - maybe acting as humans do. They might form governments, fall in love, etc. If this ever were to happen, I think it would be a long, long way into the future.

Dang, are you the one who made the dinosaurse go extinct... Note... I think we found the culprit...

Why did all of the remaining dinosaurs die out suddenly at the end of the Cretaceous period? There is a short answer and a long answer to this question.\n \n2     Here is the short answer. No one knows for sure.\n \n3     Here is the long answer. There are a number of theories. Some are scientific, and some are ridiculous. Most scientists believe in one or two main ones, but no one knows for sure.\n \n4     The reason no one knows for sure is because the whole thing happened about 65 million years ago. No one was around to see or hear what was going on back then, and no one was around to keep records.\n \n5     What we do know comes mainly from fossil records. Scientists study the fossils themselves, and they study the rock in which the fossils are found. Fossil records haven't given us definite proof for any one theory. This is because there are some problems with fossil records. For one thing, most fossil evidence of dinosaurs has been found in North America. We don't know as much about dinosaur activity on other parts of the earth. Another problem is that it is very hard to date fossils. Dating fossils means determining how old they are.\n \n6     One really interesting thing about the big dinosaur question is that scientists from many different fields are working to solve the problem. Astronomers, physicists, geologists, paleontologists, ecologists, chemists, geologists and others are all gathering evidence, experimenting, and researching to try to solve the puzzle.\n \n7     The most popular theory is called the Alvarez Hypothesis. This hypothesis says that, 65 million years ago, a big asteroid hit the earth. This asteroid crash scattered dust high up into the atmosphere. It blocked much of the sunlight and caused the earth to become cooler. The crash also started huge fires, high winds, and violent storms that killed some of the dinosaurs. The lack of sunlight and warmth caused many plants to die. This shortage of plants for food caused the rest of the dinosaurs to die out.\n \n8     The second most popular theory says that activity on the earth itself caused the extinction. As the supercontinent of Pangaea was breaking up, movement of the earth's giant land plates caused volcanoes to erupt and the climate to change. These changes affected the earth's atmosphere and temperature, and the dinosaurs died out from the cold or from lack of plants to eat.\n \n9     Other theories suggest that dinosaurs became so big that they couldn't move, or that there were too many dinosaurs and they ate up all of the food.

Birds are the direct descendents of dinosaurs.  Many scientists will say they *are* dinosaurs.  As such, they are alive, so dinosaurs are alive.\n\nWhile it remains possible that some dinosaurs proper have survived, it is extremely unlikely at this point.  There is no physical evidence for it.\n\nYour second question is difficult to answer.  Are there prehistoric creatures that have survived?  Sure!  Pretty much every species on earth today (even humans!) is older than history, that makes it prehistoric!  Defining prehistoric any other way would essentially make prehistoric mean "not surviving today", so the answer would be no.\n\nWhat you mean, of course, is creatures to have survived from truly ancient times, such as from the Mesozoic (age of dinosaurs) or older, but again, it's difficult to answer.  There probably aren't any actual species that old, but it's difficult to tell if something in the fossil record is actually the same species as something alive today.  Consider, lions and tigers look and act very different alive and are certainly two different species, but it is very difficult to tell their skeletons apart.\n\nA lot of so-called "living fossils" really aren't.  For instance, we have no fossils of the Coelacanth.  It's closest relatives in the fossil record are in another family (as different as cats and dogs).  Cockroaches are often said to have been unchanged for millions of years, but it's not the case as the fossil record records them evolving continuously.  The first fossil cockroaches had three pairs of wings!\n\nBut some things have survived nearly unchanged for millions of years.  Six-gill and Port Jackson sharks are very much like they were in the age of dinosaurs.  The Tuatara is surprisingly like it's Mesozoic relatives.\n\nBut the king of living fossils is the Lingula brachiopod.  It looks like a clam and lives by filter feeding, but don't let it's calm appearance fool you.  These little guys are survivors.  They've been living in Earth's oceans almost unchanged for 550 million years!  That's almost as long as we have animal fossils at all!  Dinosaurs are hardly teenagers by comparison!\n\nAddenda:  The Komodo Dragon is NOT believed to be a dinosaur, at least not by scientists.  It is just a large monitor lizard.  Dinosaurs are not lizards, being classed among the Archosaurs with the crocodiles, pterosaurs and birds.

millions of years ago.....\n a meteor hit the earth causing the dust, dirt, sand, and other particles to fly into the air and stay. at this time the particles caused a darkness which blocked the sun whit prevnted the plants to grow & the herbivores died.... when the herbavores died the carnivores died because herbavors were thier main source of food.

well actually I've been pondering this for a while. God say's He created them. I dont think they were 'pets'. the fossil soil beneath us is four miles thick all around the earth. that translates into one hell of a lot of dinosaurs. then they died . God begins creating again calling forth 'every living creature'. life begins to grow and mulitply on its own without God's help. so it is my feeling that the dinosaurs served one absolute and essential purpose. God created them specifically to be used as fertilizer for the earth. to provide fossil fuel. the earth would not be in existence today if not for the dinosaurs. life as we know it would not be the same. they were used to prepare the earth for human habitation.

most likely rabbits.. cats.. dog.. monkies. perhaps pigs too but not sure.

in the ice age all mammals died not just a few species.the temperature was very cold and mammal were the first to be extinct.just like right now if an ice age came the mammals of the forests would go first along with insects. now there would be a few insect species that would survive but only for a short time. that does not include mammals of the ocean.water especially salt water freezes at a lower temp than plain water

Definitely dogs.  Cats can't look at you with big, sad eyes.  Dogs are also more loving.
