Gotta hate someone, I don't know why I'll fight for a better way, be a dead hero for the U.S.A. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted January 16, 2006 Report Share Posted January 16, 2006 I think I had heard once that 95% of all wildlife forms have been wiped out, meaning out of all wildlife ever, but I'm not sure in what time frame or how they could figger that. I'm also not sure if that's valid at all, but I bet frag would know?fraggle <EBbrewpunx wrote: http://www.enn.com/today.html?id=9653Climate-Change Fungus is Wiping out Frogs An infectious fungus aggravated by global warming has killed entire populations of frogs in Central and South America and driven some species to extinction. i remember years and years ago, prolly in the late 70's, watching some show on PBS, maybe NOVA...anyways..it was on the Costa Rican cloud forestand they showed these yellow frogs, called Golden Toadsgorgeous lil thingsthen, many years later, watched another special..and they said they had all vanished..and they showed the same footage from all those years earlier..stating this was the only known film of the species:(1000 miles of endless screams, where all the dead heroes lay I've got the choice to set my knife, I've got the courage to set my life I've got the day I'll pick to die.
