Bigfoot is gorilla-shaped animal or kingkong but he walked upright like humans and the whole body was filled with feathers. According to eyewitnesses, Bigfoot has a high of about 7 to 10 feet. Reports on the existence of Bigfoot found in many American and the Himalayan region. But the last few shows Bigfoot reports there are around Peninsular Malaysia. Bigfoot allegedly a descendant of the ancient animals that have been extinct from the descendants of Homo erectus. Bigfoot is omnivorous animals. Bigfoot own name be used because this creature was found with human footprints as big as one and a half times that of the human foot is generally


In the year 1505 Portuguese sailors discovered the island of Mauritius. On the island is a bird found yg known as Dodo.Dodo (Raphus cucullatus) is a bird that can not fly that ever lived on the island of Mauritius. This bird related to pigeons. This bird has about one meter high, eating fruit, and nesting on the ground.Dodo became extinct between the mid-to late 17th century. Extinction is often used as archetypal as happened in human history and the result of human activity.
Dodo is a bird that is not afraid of humans, and plus its inability to fly, making it an easy prey captured. The man who landed in Mauritius eat this bird. However, many journals reported dodo bad taste and tough meat.


Steller's sea cow (Hydrodamalis gigas) is a large Sirenia mammals have become extinct and the previous can be found in the sea coast bering in Asia. Steller's sea cow was found on the islands in 1741 by Komander naturalist Georg Steller.Sea cow population is in small quantities and limited when the Steller describes them. Steller said that they found in the group, but Stejneger estimate there are fewer than 1500 remaining and endangered due to overhunting by humans.They were eliminated by the sailors, seal hunters, and fur traders who followed the Bering route to Alaska, who hunt them for food and skin used to make ships. They are also hunted for its fat is not only used for food, but also as an oil lamp because it does not give off any smoke or smell and can be stored for long periods in warm air. In the year 1768, less than 30 years the sea lion was discovered, Steller sea lions have become extinct ..


Spectacled Cormorant (Phalacrocorax perspicillatus) is a species of sea birds have been long extinct and the bird came from Cormorant. These birds inhabit the islands was the Bering, and was first discovered by Georg Steller in 1741.With a weight of about 12 to 14 pounds, the bird is the subject of foods it is enough to satisfy the hunger of three adults.


Two-horned rhino.This animal is very similar to the modern rhinoceros, only he has 2 horns. Estimated to live approximately 25 to 45 million years bygone

One tiger tooth blade is the most familiar (genus smilodon). Tiger tooth blade may eat large animals such as horses, deer, buffalo
In line with current technological advances, scientists are now beginning to think to "revive" some washed-extinct species by cloning above. This method will be applicable to the particular species propertied DNA remains quite good reply like Mammoth and Thylacine.


Mammoth is a genus of ancient elephant that had become extinct. Larger body size than a normal elephant in the world today. Tusk
circular curve inward and, in the northern species, with long hair.
There is misconception that the mammoth's bigger than an elephant. The largest species of mammoth are known, the Imperial Mammoth of California, has a high back at least 5 meters. Mammoth generally weighs 6-8 tons, but a large male elephant weight can reach 12 tons. Long mammoth tusk was found at 3.3 meters north of Lincoln, Illinois in 2005. Most species have mammoth size of the modern Asian Elephant.


Great deer or elk Irish Giant, is the largest deer that ever lived.Living in Eurasia, from Ireland to the east of Lake Baikal, during the Late Pleistocene and early Holocene.Last known remaining species have a carbon-date to around 5700 BC, or about 7700 years ago.Giant Deer is famous for great size (about 2.1 meters or 7 feet high at the shoulder), and in particular for causing any tine of the greatest known cervid (a maximum of 3.65 meters/12 feet turn to turn and weigh up to 90 pounds).Discussion of extinction because they still concentrate on the Horn (rather than on their overall body size), which may be more rights to their impact on the observer than the actual property anywhere.There are already proposed hunting by humans is contributing factor in the demise of Ireland as a deer with many prehistoric mega-fauna, even assuming that the large size limit Horn gestures by male heath area or that of some other means "maladaptation".But the evidence for over-hunting vague, and as a continental species, would have co-evolved with humans throughout its existence and seems to have.
