10 Terrifying Animals You're Glad Are Extinct

Like humans, animals are always growing, changing, and going extinct. Throughout the course of the planet’s existence, there have been countless animals and creatures that have walked on the very ground we stand. As we know, there have been some incredible creatures, both big and small that were both frightening and fascinating. Had these animals lived while humans were alive, there’s no telling whether or not the human race would still be in existence. Over the course of time, elements change, environments change, and there are some animals that aren’t able to survive thanks to Darwin’s theory of “survival of the fittest.” Can you imagine living at the same time as the dinosaurs? That would have drastically changed the way we lived! But thanks to the meteor that hit the Earth, these dangerous creatures were wiped out from the planet. Even though these animals don’t exist anymore, thanks to technology in archaeology, we can now have a glimpse at what the past was like. However, some of the results might be truly terrifying.

In this video, you will meet ten terrifying animals that you would be glad that they are extinct. Whether they are merely scary looking or posed a potential threat to humans, these extinct animals are a sight to behold.

It could be a sad thing, but for others, it’s a major relief
