Funny, I don’t miss them.
It seems to me that “Climate Change” is designed for the financial extinction of FREEDOM
Because no animal species ever went extinct before the advent of the “hockey stick” and the invention of man made global warming and climate change.
Aren’t those so called “scientists” intelligent to know that climate has been in a constant state of change since Creation. Some caused by the way nature was designed by the Creator, some because of Sun activity and some because of fluctuations in our cosmos.
I’ve got mice in our garage that I can send them; NYC has lots of rats. I’m sure we can help replenish the rodent population.
When attempting to save a species from extinction, be careful what you wish for.
Why are leftists upset by the evolution.
This is truly survival of the fittest.
believed to have evolved in isolation from its nearest relative for nearly a million yearsWikipedia says that it was
similar to the Cape York melomys except that it had some protein differences and a coarser tail caused by elevated scales
Thus it wasn't much different than other rodents in the area.
It was a rodent, they literally breed every chance they get, micro evolutionary change especially within a limited breed stock could happen within the span of centuries if that. Would not be surprised if it started it's evolutionary journey from the seed of some stranded ship rats from the 18th century.
I find it hard to believe it survived events such as:
As glaciers and icecaps melted at the end of the last Ice Age, sea levels rose and dramatically changed the world, perhaps nowhere more dramatically than in what is now the Black Sea, where, according to some researchers, a flood 7600 years ago filled the basin. NOAA
Real science tells us sea levels rise and fall naturally, due to events such as ice ages, fluctuations of temperature, etc. Even weather events [NASA] can affect the sea level.
So how did this little rat survive millions of years of sea level change? It didn't, because it isn't.
1) It’s a rat.
2) Scientists, while “devastated”, couldn’t be all that worried about it, otherwise they’d be trying harder to trap a few for saving.
3) Species evolve. Or don’t and die out. Been like that since day one. If the “scientists” could see past the end of their own noses, they’d know this.
4) At the end of the day...it’s a rat.
What a crock !!!
It was a rat and now it’s been successfully eliminated.
Was the sea rising or did the cay (island) sink? My money is on the sinking of the rat infested bog.
How is the world any worse off with one less rodent?
Hmm.. Natural events that likely swamped the cay...
2009 - Solomon Islands earthquake - up to 45.39 feet tsunami action.
2011 - Typhoon Yasi - 12 foot wave action up to 300 miles from the epicenter..
The list just goes on and on and on. It’s a cay, a low sandy island atop a coral reef.
Sea level has slowly risen for a long long time. It will eventually reverse itself over a long time. And it isn't perceptibly faster now then it appears to have been in the past.
I like giving people the benefit of the doubt before calling them frauds....but I don't have much doubt left. The alarmists who claim to be "scientists" or "journalists of science" seem like they must be frauds. Either incompetent or dishonest or both.
I literally cannot take anything the article says seriously after this statement.
The ‘journalist’ is not only dumb as a post regarding the TRUTH about AGL, the writing of a title line is beyond the education of the fool.
Extinction by Bureocracy,
The UN should sue the government of Australia for a few Billion dollars for the genocide and extinction of an entire species, and of course they would put the money to good use /s
