You've been given magical powers and can get 3 species back to life in this earth.

>>2287533
neanderthals because they are smarter than us, mammoths because i want to eat one, and dodos because i want to eat one.
>>2287546
>because i want to eat one.
>wanting more of things that taste like chicken

dwarf elephant
-Beast of burden, livestock adapted to forest
Turtle Jawed Goose
-It lived off ferns, I'd want to raise and eat them + kosher
Neanderthal

some big dinosaur
>>2288285
>he would fuck pic related
>>2289345
Considering how many different people fucked picrelated, I am not surprised
Wooly Mammoth - because I want to see one in our era, and because I am in Canada and I want to ride one to work or have it pull a sled.
Passenger Pigeon - because as a North American I feel guilty that we totally have killed them all...
Dodo Bird - because we need them for the Dodo Tree.

None of those are extinct. Plague still does the rounds every now and then. They're all being worked on for bioweapons and/or counter-bioterrorism
http://www.livescience.com/36060-people-catch-plague.html
>Do People Still Catch the Plague?
>The World Health Organization reports 1,000 to 3,000 cases of plague worldwide every year. An average of five to 15 cases occur each year in the western United States. These cases are usually scattered in rural areas; they are caused by bites primarily from infected prairie dogs. There has not been a case of person-to-person infection in the United States since 1924.
>Plague is often mentioned as a bioterrorism weapon along with anthrax, smallpox and botulism. A bioweapon carrying plague is possible because the bacterium that causes plague occurs in nature and could be isolated and grown in quantity in a laboratory.
>Plague bacteria could be sprayed through the air, infecting anyone who inhales it. In this scenario, antibiotics would treat the plague effectively if they are used soon after infection. There is no vaccine for plague. [6 Superbugs to Watch Out For]

Can I have breeds of dog before they got all retarded?
I will use my magical powers to save three smushed-up face breeds, restoring their ability to breathe.
>>2289462
Maybe I was referring to specific and unspecified extinct minor strains out of the many thousands of each.
>>2289444
Dude, I've seen Jurassic Park, I don't want to bring back anything that haven't coexisted with humans before and risk us getting beta-ed.
Passenger Pigeons were so delicious, we ate them into extinction. That's better than bringing back a T-Rex that would eat us.
>>2287582
That's going to be the destiny of whites in the West, isn't it?
Mammoths/Mastodons because Africa and Asia have their elephants, why not North America and Siberia?
Dire wolves would be another I'd like to see
The European Lion would be another one. I'd love nothing more than to see the sudden return of lions to that continent, lol chasing and eating all the lefty fags the rapefugees
Phorusrhacos because secretary birds are cool, so we need bigger ones
Opabinia for the memes
Tasmanian Tigers because I feel like I need a Holocene one to balance it out
>>2287533
Gorgonopsid
T-Rex
Spinosaurus
Because why not
>Stilt Owls
Resemblance to a demon
>Giant Beaver or the Giant Hutia
100 kg rodents the size of bears
>Horned Turtle

Good call. Time to finally put this debate to bed.
The three largest sea creatures that have ever existed.
>>2287582
r9k the bird
>>2289821
>Megalodon
>Awwhellnaw.png
>Caribbean monk seal
>Carolina Parakeet

Make Florida wild again.
Thylacine - unique, and we owe it to them
Deinonychus - big raptors, but not horrifyingly big
Parasaurolophus - I want to know if they really honked with their crests
>>2290122
Ah fuck, I just came up with a better third choice. Quetzalcoatlus northropi.
>>2287533
protoceratops
ankylosaurus
quetzalcoatlus
dickinsonia rex
fractofusus misrai
cloudina sp.
>>2290131
>protoceratops
God how much more boring could you get?
Amphicoelias
Neanderthal
Any 40 ft+ theropod
Leptictidium
Tasmanian Tiger
Liopleurodon
>>2289877
I don't think the megalodon would even make top 10 among the largest creatures ever
American cheetah since the African ones are on the way out.
Elephant bird because it looks cool as fuck.
Thylacine because humans are cunts and they deserve another chance.
I live in the heart of former passenger pigeon country fuck you guys. There's a reason we ate them all.
>>2287792
You mean Chalicotheres?
Personally though the dodo would definitely be on the list because man, they deserve a chance to shake off the "stupid fatass" legacy they have. Second would be the Balearic Islands cave goat because cold-blooded goat, and lastly Rabbs' fringe-limbed treefrog because it literally just went extinct last year.
>>2290937
Yeah, Chalicotheres
>>2287533
Carolina parakeet, passenger pigeon, and Caribbean monk seal
Dire wolf
Saber toothed cat
Dodo
so many dodo people itt
>>2289462
No commercially available vaccine for plague, anyway. I did a project on the plague just a couple of years ago for a pharmacy course, and either the WHO or CDC's website states there is one available, but only for people in at-risk professions (I believe it listed veterinarians and people that work in preserves as examples).
>>2291364
dodos are the most overrated extinct animal desu. People only care because they were the first animal to be driven extinct by man in the modern era
>>2289725
>Opabinia
Moa
Mammoth
Brachiosaurus
I´d also like to bring back several dog breeds from a hundred years ago or generally dog breeds before they were bred to shit.
>>2287533
>smallpox
>some triobite
>leedsichthys or dunkleosteus
>>2289739
>Gorgonopsid
My nigger
>>2287533
Wooly Mammoth because we need more Pleistocene megafauna besides bison
Thylacine because they were so close
Great Auk because I want northern hemisphere penguins again.
Passenger Pigeon
Choiseul Crested Pigeon
Mauritius Blue Pigeon
>Bonus round
Any extinct parrots.
Pussy species compared to >>2289769 and >>2289739, but I'm sure you can understand why I pick them.
>Calamites
>Phytoplankton
[spoiler]Because I can't find a specific name of an extinct one[/spoiler]
>Apis nearctica
Gigantopithecus (I recently watched The Jungle Book)
Titanoboa
Megalodon
I'm scared shitless of sharks and snakes and I'm curious as to the amount nightmare fuel that would provide.
I'd go for
>Sabertooths, because cool
>Pterodactyls, because cool
>The Human missing link, because mad religiousfags everywhere.
