These sites occurred as a result of humans exploiting an animal's herding behavior and predator-flight instincts. [citation needed] The extinction of the passenger pigeon is another example. [citation needed] In 2023 alone, over 1.8 million distinct human-wildlife conflicts occurred as animal involved auto accidents on roadways, seen as roadkill.
Deadliest animals as of 2016 [1] This is a list of the deadliest animals to humans worldwide, measured by the number of humans killed per year. Different lists have varying criteria and definitions, so lists from different sources disagree and can be contentious.
This is a list of large carnivores known to prey on humans. The order Carnivora consists of numerous mammal species specialized in eating flesh. This list does not include animal attacks on humans by domesticated species (dogs), or animals held in zoos, aquaria, circuses, private homes or other non-natural settings.
A nebula that is visible to the human eye from Earth would appear larger, but no brighter, from close by. [6] The Orion Nebula, the brightest nebula in the sky and occupying an area twice the angular diameter of the full Moon, can be viewed with the naked eye but was missed by early astronomers. [7]
NGC 2346 is a planetary nebula near the celestial equator in the constellation of Monoceros, [5] less than a degree to the ESE of Delta Monocerotis. [6] It is informally known as the Butterfly Nebula. [3] The nebula is bright and conspicuous with a visual magnitude of 9.6, [3] and has been extensively studied.
Has been named the “Heart nebula” because of its resemblance to a human heart. Henize 70 (N70 or DEM L301) [47] 300 ly (92 pc) [48] H II region: The N 70 Nebula, in the Large Magellanic Cloud has a shell structure and is really a bubble in space. It is a "Super Bubble". Barnard's Loop: 300 ly (92 pc) [49] [50] H II region
The Crab Nebula is a pulsar wind nebula associated with the 1054 supernova.It is located about 6,500 light-years from the Earth. [1]A near-Earth supernova is an explosion resulting from the death of a star that occurs close enough to the Earth (less than roughly 10 to 300 parsecs [33 to 978 light-years] away [2]) to have noticeable effects on Earth's biosphere.
