Problems with Noah's Ark: Mammalian Megafauna This video, my first, concerns the colourful fable of Noah's Ark that many people in the 21st century still believe to be the literal retelling of a historical event. Although the story has been debunked so often that there remains barely a shekel's worth of credibility to it, I thought it might be interesting to tackle the subject from a new angle. By looking at the mammal "megafauna" that roamed the earth for tens of millions of years after the dinosaur age, I hope to add yet another layer of "discussion" to this curious tale of godly wrath, genocide, and inbreeding-to-be. Apologies ahead of time for my voice. Never heard it before in this format, and Orson Welles I am not!

Monsters We Met - Eternal Frontier pt. 1 When our early ancestors entered new lands they encountered a variety of strange new creatures, monsters that no longer exist. What were they like and where are they now? What are the real answers to the mystery of the missing megafauna? 100000 years ago, Homo sapiens first ventured out of Africa. The world they entered was the domain of giants: monstrous marsupials, huge eagles, savage short-faced bears and the terrifying 5.5 metre long ripper lizard, Megalania. These monsters now exist only in our imagination or as long dead bones in a museum. In some areas of the world over 70% of large mammals became extinct around the time that humans arrived on the continent. But why? Was it man's arrival or was it coincidence? What are the real answers to the mystery of the missing megafauna? Extinctions caused by humans In contrast, the extinctions at the end of the Pleistocene seem to target large animals, with the small to medium ones escaping relatively lightly. Scientists that support the overkill hypothesis believe that this evidence points to humans as the culprits. The impact of human hunters on populations of large, slow-maturing, slow-breeding animals, such as mammoths and diprotodons, was bound to be far greater than any effect they might have had on small, rapidly breeding prey such as hares or squirrels. Therefore, the overkill theory seems to explain why only the megafauna died out. -Eternal Frontier- North America - 13000 years ago While the world was still in the ...

Stamp Collecting Month 2008 Megafauna The Philatelic Group at Australia Post actively encourage stamp collecting as a hobby through the national Stamp Collecting Month program. This years program featured six Australian Megafauna. We directed and produced the DVD included in the promotional kits, providing retail staff with an educational tool to conduct school visits and draw children into the wonderful and fulfilling world of Stamp Collecting. The video encourages children to learn more about these giant creatures that roamed the Australian continent many thousands and even millions of years ago. It features interviews with the stamps' artist, designer and a paleontologist. The video also provides valuable information on how stamps are made and promotes the Megafauna stamp set and merchandise.

American Lion Paleontology The American lion (Panthera leo atrox) also known as the North American lion or American cave lion, is an extinct feline known from fossils. It was one of the largest subspecies of lion ever to have existed, comparable in size to the Early Middle Pleistocene primitive cave lion, Panthera leo fossilis, and about twenty-five percent larger than the modern African lion[1], though some estimates of the weight of this animal are as high as 300 kg. If they did grow to this weight, the American lion would have been the most massive known felid. Description The body length of the American lion is estimated to have been 1.6-2.5 m (5.25-8.20 feet).[2] Thus it was comparable in size to its close relative, the extinct lion, Panthera leo fossilis, or the modern species of Amur Tiger, but still smaller than their contemporary competitor for prey, the short-faced bear, which was the largest carnivore of their era. Bronze cast of an American lion skull at the San Diego Natural History Museum (shown with a ballpoint pen to demonstrate scale)Approximately one hundred specimens of American lions have been recovered from the La Brea Tar Pits, in Los Angeles, so their body structure is well known. The features and teeth of the extinct American lion strongly resemble modern lions, but they were considerably larger. They probably were plain coloured, and males would have lacked a mane, as it is supposed for their close relatives, the Cave Lion, although some may have had small ...

What happened to the extinct African megafauna? "If humans ... develop the ability to control their impact on the biosphere while there's still something worthwhile to save, they will do so through the acquisition of knowledge and awareness. Ecological salvation appears to depend, therefore, on the same phenomenon that initiated the current mass-extinction: the power of the human intellect. Before it can work effectively, however, toward stopping the extinction-spasm which it's causing, that intellect will have to free itself of the myths which currently becloud its understanding of the biodiversity crisis, and acquaint itself with the real ecological history of its possessors."

Megafauna Extinction: Did Humans or Climate Kill Off the Mammoths? Complete video at: fora.tv Stanford biologist Elizabeth Hadly recaps a debate among biologists over whether prehistoric megafauna like mammoths, giant sloths and saber-toothed cats became extinct due to overhunting by humans, or by a combination of hunting and a changing climate. ----- Stanford biology professor Elizabeth Hadly's research in the far reaches of the globe from India to Patagonia to Southeast Asia addresses the issues of what determines and maintains vertebrate (especially mammal) diversity through space and time and how that diversity is influenced by the environment. - California Academy of Sciences Elizabeth Hadly is Associate Professor, Department of Biological Sciences and Departmen of Geology and Environmental Sciences, Stanford University. The research of Elizabeth Hadly probes how perturbations such as climatic change influence the evolution and ecology of Neogene vertebrates. Professor Hadly's field research involves excavation of finely stratified Holocene paleontological sites and collection of modern specimens in western North America and Patagonia. Construction of a state-of-the-art ancient DNA laboratory has made possible the study of genetic structure of populations through time. Laboratory work includes morphometric and molecular ***yses with the intent to extend the level of investigation down to the population and genetic levels. Ongoing projects at the macroecological scale include the study of the ecological and evolutionary factors ...
