23 Extinct Creatures That Would Be Nightmares for Humans If They Still Existed

The extinction of a species, by human hands, is a serious failing of our civilization. I don’t care if dodos tasted like a cross between Popeyes and Red Lobster biscuits, you shouldn’t hunt something until it’s literally wiped off the face of the earth. Is it that hard to leave two of them around at least? If there’s one donut left in the box, but eating it means donuts are gone forever, maybe get a granola bar, you know?
That said, there are some ancient extinct animals that, scientifically, would be nice to have around, but in a practical sense wouldn’t be that pleasant.
Redditors have sounded off on what they think might be the most annoying extinct creatures to still exist, and whether it’s their aptitude at killing and eating us or just pure, prehistoric inconvenience, some animals are probably saving us a headache by being long gone.
