What creatures do you think still exist?

[Detective Osprey]

I love to think the Ivory-billed Woodpecker, Eskimo Curlew and Megalodon still exist.

Oh, I would love it if Megalodon still existed ! 

Although, I guess we'd need to look for smaller animals in relatively isolated locations (for example, deep underwater or in dense jungle). I guess more recently-extinct animals would be more likely to resurface too - although, the re-discovery of the coelacanth demonstrates that that's certainly no requirement ! 

I wonder about the pig-footed bandicoot, for example. It hasn't been seen alive since the 1950s - but, it had a range which covered vast swathes of inland Australia (which is very sparsely-populated). Maybe there are still a few of them hiding somewhere?

[Pyrite]

I wouldn't be surprised if we re-discovered some more species. But the one I really hope still exists is the Baiji.

Actually, this reminds me - did we every get to a conclusion on what that wolf creature in Montana was?

Megalodon is definitely extinct, we wouldn't have the necessary oxygen levels to sustain them. This is why animals and fauna were so big back in those periods. There also wouldn't be enough food- which is why they went extinct in the first place. They started to kill each other off when food got scarce.

Megalodon went extinct due to temperature changes (the current glaciation basically made it too cold for it to live), not oxygen levels. Also, as it was fairly similar to a great white shark, it most likely was a ram-ventilator, meaning it had to move to keep breathing. Considering it was so massive however, it was probably constantly moving anyways.

Still cool to speculate and wonder.

Well, I stand corrected then.

I'm convinced the Thylacine is still a thing.
Like, I've never seen one, but I feel enough people have that they can't all be insane...Maybe they are.
I don't know.

Thylacine is still around though, guys.

I second this. I've seen a picture of a weird creature that didn't look like a fox.

This got outdated. Otodus megalodon went extinct from loss of prey and competition with great white sharks. They could handle cold oceans just fine.
That said, all the animals that scientists concluded are extinct are extinct. Quit searching for late surviving moa, Otodus, or whatever sort of extinct creature there is because it’s not turning up.
