Vote in Our Poll

I have placed a poll on the right side of this page. What do you think the next "rulers of the planet" will be? Do you think it'll be mammals as depicted on my Metazoic site? Do you think it'll be birds? Do you think we will revert back to the age of reptiles? Or do you think insects will rule? You don't have to reveal who you are, you don't have to comment. I just want to see what you think. I've seen everyone thinking about what group will rule the future. I personally feel it will be mammals. Mammals are much more adaptable than any other group. Birds are pretty adaptable, but not as much as the mammals. I used to raise finches, and one thing I found out is that they die when exposed to a draft. Especially the tropical finches, like waxbills and Gouldians, and any other tropical variety of finches. Finches aren't the only ones, but also parrots and other hookbills all die when exposed to cool breezes. It happens almost instantly. I remember one time my sis was babysitting my birds, and I had a budgie. She put the budgie outside and it was a breezy day. It was the middle of summer, but it was a breezy day. The next day, without warning, the budgie died. Face it, birds are nowhere near as adaptable as mammals!!

On the other hand, I once saw a program about a game farm in Canada, where it gets extremely cold! The game farm had such animals as tapir, African rhino and camels. These animals adapted very well to the freezing weather with no special accommodations at all. Reptiles well, forget about them IMO. There will never be another like the dinosaurs. Insects, well they may never get any bigger than they are now, but who knows if they will be the next rulers of the planet. They're already somewhat there!! Insects are too damn numerous!! Anyway, these are just my own opinions. Don't let me influence you at all. I want to know what your most honest opinion is.
