Is the world missing the Dodo bird? Saber toothed tiger? No! Why not?

There are no elephants in Americas and we are doing nice, thank you. There are no polar bears in S. E. Asia and last time I was there I haven't heard them complaining. There are no Camels in Russia, Canada and Scandinavia and they are not making a fuss of it.

All this hoopla about a Mammoth extinct doesn't make much sense. After all extinction is part of the scrip.

For all those dinossaurs that have gone look how many birds we inherited.

This is a 14.5 billion years old planet. We can;t expetc to freeze the state it is. It is a dynamic body with species coming and going.

We, manking, are just another species. We are successful and lest enjoy without guilty our day in the Sun.

If we have to finish off ourselves, so it will be. There are stil some 5 billion years of light in the Sun's life plenty timeto get new species. For instance an elephant? a mere 100.000 year to develop. Nothing to worry about.
