Extractions: courtesy of FWMSH Archaeopteryx (ARK-e-OP-ter-ix) considered to be the first bird. It is a bird because it had feathers. However, it retained many dinosaurian characters which are not found in modern birds, at the same time, having certain characters found in birds but not in dinosaurs. Archaeopteryx is an example of a trasition between dinosaur to bird. It lived in the Late Jurassic period, about 150 million years ago. Quetzalcoatlus (KET-sal-ko-AHT-lus) a pterosaur with a forty-foot wingspan, is the biggest animal ever to fly under its own power. It was the size of a jet fighter. It lived at what is now Big Bend, Texas, near the end of the Cretaceous Period, and went extinct at the same time as the big dinosaurs. For millions of years both pterosaurs and birds existed on Earth, but now pterosaurs are gone and birds fill the skies. Quetzalcoatlus may have eaten carrion like a vulture, or perhaps it plucked mollusks from the mud of river floodplains with its beak.

http://trillian.com/animals/mammoth.htm

Extractions: Mammathus primigenius One of several species of huge, hairy, elephantlike creatures, the now extinct mammoth roomed the earth untill as recently as 10,000 years ago. ~~~ DESCRIPTION ~~~ Slightly larger then today's elephonts. ~ Longer tusk, up to 16 feet long. Mammoths survived arctic temperatures, thank to extra fat stores and hairy coats. ~ Evidence suggests they existed in large numbers. crossing the tundra in huge herds, searching for food. KEY FATS BREEDING OTHER MAMMOTHS M. meridionalis M. trogontherii of central Europe was probably one of the first mammoths to develop a protective hairy coat. BREEDING Mammoths' many similarities to day's elephants help scientists to guess fairlly accurately about mammoth reproduction. Single calves were probably born after a gestating period of 22 months. Well-developed social system helped to ensure long periods of post-natal care. Sexual maturity was reached after 10-12 years.

Extractions: Architecture and Sculpture Sculpture and relief panels at the George C. Page Museum, Los Angeles Representations of prehistoric life have come a long way over the past century or so. Some of these representations have been made vivid in sculpture and architectural decoration. - Julian Holland Where would the animals be without plants? The Eocene Grove outside the Geology Museum, University of Western Australia, Perth, Australia Fossil ammonite incorporated into a domestic garden wall, England The following six photographs show a small selection of the wonderful mosaic representations of prehistoric animals in the Capitol Building in Lincoln, Nebraska. The mosaics were designed by Hildreth Meiere. The animals inhabit the guilloche (band) that links four circles representing the four elements - earth, air, fire and water - with the central figure of Mother Nature. The overall design was inspired by a pattern in the floor of the Cathedral of Siena. Meiere's design occupies the floor of the rotunda, the centrepiece of the Capitol which was built between 1922 and 1932. The animals, all from Nebraska's own geological history, are grouped with the four elements as follows:

Extractions: Interesting Names Woolly and Huge Strange and/or Massive Resources E xtinct Animals. Normally one would hear those words used to describe the dinosaurs - or perhaps the Dodo Bird. But what people don't often think of are the thousands of interesting creatures that lived and died on this planet of ours in the "in-between" years. The last dinosaurs vanished 65 million years ago, the last Dodo died over 300 years ago. The millions of years between the two (The Cenozoic Era) have been populated (off and on) by some of the largest mammals the world has ever seen. Some familiar, some bizarre - often gigantic, these Megafauna (Latin for "large animals") can be every bit as intriguing as the dinosaurs.

From Alaskas eastern border with Canadas Yukon Territory it stretches 2,400 miles westward to Attu Island. From the southern tip of Alaska to Barrow, the northernmost city in the United States, is a distance of 1,420 miles. The highest point in North America is Denali, or Mt. McKinley, an icy giant that rises to 20,320 feet in south-central Alaska. About 5,000 glaciers are in Alaska. The largest are in the moist highlands of south-central and Southeast Alaska. Not all of Alaskas freshwater is frozen, however. Alaska boasts more than 3,000 rivers. The third largest river in the United States is the Yukon, which flows out of Canada across Alaska to the Bering Sea. Alaska even boasts North Americas largest animals. Some of the biggest moose, brown bears, and polar bears live in Alaska, for example. Other majestic Alaskan wildlife include caribou, white dall sheep, shaggy muskoxen, and wolves.

The Platte River flows across Nebraska from west to east, emptying into the Missouri. Following the Platte River westward, lush cornfields are replaced by grasslands and wheat fields, which stretch on towards Wyoming and Colorado. This is a land of windmills, lone cottonwoods, and shelterbeltsrows of trees planted for protection from the wind. In north-central Nebraska is North Americas biggest sand dune area, roughly the size of West Virginia. But you wont see sand dunes, for the sandhills are anchored by grasses. Some dunes are as high as 300 feet and may be separated by valleys ten miles long. Studded with shallow lakes, the sandhills ripple north into South Dakota.

Extractions: Collecting creatures from the past Long before there were people on earth, dinosaurs, sabre-toothed tigers, woolly mammoths and other prehistoric creatures inhabited the planet. They have long become extinct and have been replaced by new forms of life. We can learn a lot about these prehistoric plants and animals which existed long before us. One of the most important ways to learn about them is through the study of fossils. Fossils can take many forms. Most fossils are the remains of plants and animals preserved in rock. You can collect different types of fossils, or concentrate on a certain type, perhaps plants, shells, bones, or other parts of prehistoric animals.

Extractions: The authors . . . have brought [Ice Age] animals to life with amazing computer graphics. Now we can actually see woolly mammoths and giant short-faced bears standing in the stunning scenery. . . . No other [book] has so masterfully or beautifully presented this story.from the Foreword When human beings first arrived in North America at the end of the last Ice Age, they encountered a teeming variety of animals, from ground sloths and mastodons to zebras and camels. This spectacularly illustrated book takes us on a captivating journey back to that time, showing us the entire continent and its incredible wildlife as it looked 13,000 years ago. The book travels the ancient continent region by region, from the icy Arctic vastness to the steamy tropical swamps of Florida. We are introduced to bizarre beasts, now extinct (including glyptodonts, scimitar-toothed cats, and mammoths); animals that have long since disappeared from their North American habitats (lions, cheetahs); and species still seen today (grizzlies, condors, alligators). A wealth of fossil evidence informs the stunning computer-generated panoramas that fill the pages of this extraordinary book. The bones of the ancient beasts again have flesh and fur, unfamiliar animals again roam the landscapes, and the world of prehistoric North America comes startlingly to life.

Extractions: SYMPOSIUM Where the Wild Things Were The Flintstones , the entertaining but historically flawed cartoon, much of the hunting illustration is simply preposterous. Illustration by Regan Dunnick New Yorker article about the Ebola virus in Africa. The article, which evolved into a best-selling book, The Hot Zone , documented how a once-obscure disease jumped between species, somehow becoming lethally virulent in the process. The bones and teeth of mammoths and other extinct mammals may hold evidence of a pathogen that led to their demise. MacPhee and his colleagues have traveled to remote places like Wrangel Island (off the coast of northeastern Siberia in the Chukchi Sea), where some of the best mammoth specimens can be found. They hope that marrow extracted from mammoth ulnas and femurs will contain an ancient killer microbe. Though the ecological irony of this parallel is tempting, MacPhee stresses that hyperdisease is still only a theory. Until pathological evidence of disease is found in giant mammal DNA and RNA samples, his theory will have to compete with the other extinction hypotheses.

Extractions: Lesson Plans Ancestors are people in your family who lived before you, like great-great-grandparents. You are a descendant of your ancestors. The long ago ancestors of our Native Americans, including the Eskimos, may have come from Asia by crossing the Bering Sea at a land bridge between Siberia and Alaska. Thousands of years ago this was dry land. They may have followed animals like mastodons or woolly mammoths which they hunted for food. We call these early people PaleoIndians. Paleo- means "long ago". When did this happen? We don't know. Scientists think it could have been anywhere from 20,000 to 40,000 years ago. Over thousands of years, the descendants of the PaleoIndians spread across the continents into North, Central and South America. The world at that time was in the ice ages . The last great ice age lasted more than 2,500,000 years and ended about 10,000 years ago. There were many plants, insects, birds and animals which do not exist today. At times, glaciers covered almost 30% of the earth. The land which is now the state of Virginia was not covered by the ice sheet. States such as Pennsylvania and New Jersey were.
